Angry Clunky Noise over bumps!! Need Advise

Dear Jag lovers,

I heard clunky noises in my 2000 S Type over bumps both front and rear suspension. I bought this car few months ago.

So far I have changed:
Front: tie rods, upper control arms, lower ball joint and stabalizer links, so pretty much everything
Rear: torsion/tie rods, stabalizer links.

What could still cause clunk over bumps, its improved but still hear it. Not much going over speed bumps rather un ever surfaces.

Most likely the lower strut bushes. If you search this forum, there are threads on this subject that can provide information.

Agreed.

Also, your list of change outs does not include the actual sway bar "D" rubbers. Some languages call them "mounting rubbers".

The fronts are well known as a problem child.

Rear sway bar also has them, but not as well documented as the fronts.
