So to start off: remove your wheels, loosen and remove the nut from one of your endlinks (whether if it's from the sway bar or the actual strut.) Then remove the three bolts on top of the strut (shown with the green arrow.) the strut should fall with the brake caliper. Next, hold the area within the purple brackets and turn the camber plate (Blue arrow pointing at it) right. Turn it a full two revolutions then reinstall. Before you lower your car on the wheels, don't forget to tighten the camber bolts! (4 bolts on top, yellow arrow) And that's it!

Damn! Thank you for the clear explanation.

Guess I'll do it next weekend and hope I don't cause harm driving it this way through out the week

No problem! and i can't help but notice, your location says Riverside, CA. I'm down there occasionally, maybe we'll run into each other one of these days! Windshield banner says Neck breaker or Flossy kings.

Yeah my front clunk was caused by my endlinks nailing my control arm. My rears still clunk like a mofo though. :P

Any way to solve the front issue w/ the control arms?

Just shorten the endlinks. I didn't need to modify/buy anything. Just twist them shorter

The problem seems to be; the space between the camber plate and the pillow joint. every time you would hit a bump, the space is no good, which causes the pillow joint to collide with the camber plate. Just unbolt the 3 bolts on the top, unbolt your endlinks, twist your camber plate (while holding the springs) then re-install. (Don't forget to tighten the camber bolts! 4 bolts on top) Then Voila!

i need to try this as well, ive got a clunk from the front drivers side..

have you tried tilting the sway bar up a little, and shortening the end links?

Update. To make the clunking noise go away (Without taking everything apart.) Open the hood, jack the section of the car the noise is coming from up, and tighten the bolt right under the dampening knob. For some reason, the threads are very greasy, and it seems to come loose every now and them. Particularly when i hit large bumps frequently.
