Check the torque rod bushing and the drivers side engine mount.

do you know if the driveshafts for these guys are easy to come by? are they in any way standard?

Sorry.. I said the clunking noise happens in turns.. I went out and tried again.. and it doesn't, it's only when taking off and braking hard.

Hey everyone. I'm tearing apart my civic and counting my chickens.. I'm gonna jack up the car and do the basic stuff oil, air filter, oil filter, brakes, and I'm gonna remove the rad so I can get it fixed. while I'm under there, I'd like to figure something out: I noticed when I pull around a corner hard or take off fast, I get this cracking and creaking noise from the front passenger side of the car. the car also pulls left slightly at any speed. I also noticed a slight wobble in the wheels at low speed (when following it in another car), but at anything over 5-10km/h it disappears. Where should I start looking? anyone felt this stuff before? could worn out engine mounts do this? most of the rubber on the car is weatherbeaten. this car has had an extremely tough life, but the engine runs like a top still.
