Try changing the shock absorbers bushes. also sometimes the springs clunk because when someones removed them they've forgot to put the rubber back in between the spring and the body.

My 2002 mitsubishi montero sport is making a creaking sound from the left front side torsion bar. Helpp!

Would look first at condition of bushings. Live in a dry area? Rubber bushings dry rot quickly in Colorado, New Mexico, etc. If you have already isolated it that well, though, then you probably already checked that, so apologies if this tells you nothing new, but there are not that many possibilities for creaking sounds from front suspension. Ball joints usually clunk or pop, and strut/spring mounts seem out of range based on your description.

Front end clunk

It's usually a sway bar link and/or sway bar bushing.
Disconnect it and try that for less noise before buying parts.

I have a 2005 Trailblazer. I have had the stalilizer bar replaced, new ball joints, greesed the fittings on the ball joints. New calipers, rotos and branke pade. HOWEVER, I still have a clunking sound...

They are really bad for the lower control arm bushings causing a clunk noise. You can't see movement by checking on a hoist, but lubing them will help only temporarily. I did a lot of them under warranty, but being 2005 I'm sure yours has expired. I' would highly recommend changing them to eliminate the clunk noise.

Where is the sway bar?

sway bar runs from lower suspension arm on one side of the car to the lower suspension arm of the other side. It is only visible under the car and has several attachment points. sometimes these mounts break and you will hear a clunking noise when turning. hope this helps or get back with me - not a lot of info in your question and good luck

Noise from rear suspension on 2003 Honda Odyssey.

a clunking clanging noise sounds very much like your stabilizer bar end links and bushings. you have a thin rear "sway" bar on the rear of your odyssey. this can cause a whole lot of noise. grab each side and pull/push. if it feals loose, replace the end links and bushings.

Loud clunking noise in front end over bumps

This is most likely one or both of these:

The intermediate steering shaft loses lubrication and develops a clunk - this is an engineering deficiency in many GM products dating back to the early 90s.

and/or

The electrically assisted steering column actually has plastic gears in it which wear down quickly, get sloppy and cause clunking through the steering wheel.

If your car is out of warranty, this will be expensive.

GM knows about both of these issues, and continues to engineer these problems into their products.

I have a2001 cherokee sport changed upper &lower ball joints,shocks sway bar end links and bushings. rear shocks,sway bar end links & bushings also,but i still get a clunking noise in the rear of...

Clunking noise in the rear of the vehicle is a broad statement. When is the vehicle doing it? Is it all the time or just over bumps? Is it happening only going around curves? Is it a constant bump that speeds up and slows down with the vehicle speed. You would be supprised how many clunking noises can come from the driveline not the suspension. It could be anything from a bushing to your rear differential getting ready to grenade.
