Default Another clunk in front end thread, HELP!

2010 fx4 4in rough country 33 22 rims82000 miles.
Clunk in front end. Started after I lifted truck and got it back from the alignment shop. When I make a qwick jerk with the steering wheel or hit a bump it clunks. Iv torqued and re-torqued inspected and re inspected and found nothing. Bringing back in tomarrow. Its driving me crazzzzzy! At least I can duplicate the sound when needed.
It sounds like its comming from the opposite side of what ever direction im turning. Jerk the steering wheel left it will come from the right vice versa. Its very noticable.
Day 2, Brought it in and even the ford certified tech of 30 years cant pinpoint the sound.
?????????

Update, The machanic said the right front strut mount has a hailine crack in the rubber bushing. So Im going to bring it home and pull of the strut to have a peek.
Would you guys recommend replacing it with a qwick strut or bring it in to have spring compressed to replace part. The truck rides fine and thier is no leaks in the shocks??? 80000 miles. I dont thank strut mounts have a recommended milage replacement only if its visual wear and tear.

Is anyone alive in thies forums?????haha!
So I bought a qwick strut and replaced. Still have a dreadfull clunk sound. The truck store that I bought my lift from said bring it in monday so they can have a look. Thier specialty is installing lift kits and mods.
The owner said its probly something out of level and dont worry, they will fined the problem. I dont have high expectations tho. Im wounder if its something in my front diff?
