2004 VUE 3.5L
Sad Clunk in right front

I have an 04 Vue with a severe clunk coming from the right front when driving over any bumps. I have replaced the struts with strut plates, sway bar bushings, sway bar links, and ball joints. Still have the clunk. Any ideas? Could the wheel hub bearings cause this?

REWARD EXCELLENCE!

Apply slight brake pedal to see if clunk is still there ... if it is ... could it be nearer center of Vue - say basically underneath floor board at your feet?

See the attached service document.

Check the lower control arm bushing, the early model years of 2004 vues were notorious for failing.
