[V8] Things that go clunk after turns

[george.fallot at verizon.net]

 Kneale,
     I had a similar noise in my car. It turned out to be a control
arm bushing,$65 and about 1 hours work. You can buy the
bushing by itself and press it in,but if you buy the whole arm
 you also get the ball joint,and the whole arm has to come out anyway.

 Good luck, George

Now, when I load the front suspension heavily in a hard left turn at speed,
I hear a substantial clunk as the wheels return to neutral.  I looked
underneath to make sure I wasn't missing any bolts  or having some broken
parts, but couldn't see anything unusual.  What should I look for when I
jack up the car and remove the wheel?
