Suspension Clunk
#21
Before when I had my stock sway bar, I would grease the two front bushings. This stop the clunking I had. Since then I replace them with Energy bushing kit with grease fitting. I know you said you replace the sway bar components but did you grease the two front bushings holding the sway bar? See where I am getting at?
Anyways just my .

I got the wrong kit that had strait end links instead of the L shaped ones. I used the bushings w/ grease fitting from the kit and sold the strait links to the kid down the street. The kit was cheap 25-30, but you already have your Moog end links, so just get the Energy bushings.
This is one I found on Amazon, just make sure its for your truck year.

Yes, they slid in from the sides. Don't quote me on this but you probably get away with removing one side of the links, grease up the bars and slide into positions.
I would try greasing the stock frame bushing to see if its the problem first. Don't have to remove side links, just unbolt the front bushings.
Process of elimination.
If you stick with the stock depending on how dry and dusty your area is you'll be greasing them constantly. Or else the clucking returns. With the stocks bushing I would unbolt them, open them up (they are like C shaped-Bushings) and apply grease.
That's why I went with grease-able one's with zerk fittings, the grease is retain in the inner groves and last longer.
I sure hope this helps you out, if not I tried my best to help a fellow RAMMER.

front end clunk
I also have a clunk but is only on the drivers side when I go over a big lump in the road.It seems like the suspension is hitting the bump stop.I put new Monroe sensa trac shocks on and nothing changed.Could I have a bad coil spring?Also when it clunks I can feel it on the floor where my left foot rests.
