A clunk over bumps, loose or wandering steering, or uneven tire wear can mean a worn arm or ball joint, though other suspension parts produce the same signs. With the engine off, look into the wheel well for cracks in the arm, a torn ball joint boot or leaking grease, and leave play testing to a shop so the real cause is found before parts are replaced.
