93 850 front suspension groan / clunk
my 93 850 has a loud groan/clunk in the front suspension only when I make a very sharp turn, like turning into a parking space or truning into the drive. it groand terrible and comming into the drive i go down a sharp hill and then it clunks as well. it is not a cv joint, and swaybar bushings and links have been replaced. I am assuming its the strut bushings or strut bearings? but I don't notice it at all driving straight down very bumpy roads?

I have the same. I think (pretty sure) it's the spring seats:

It's because the car's frame flexes most when turning sharply that you hear it.
