Re: Could a steering rack u/j be the source of the mystery clonk?

Replacing the u-joint isn't all that terrible, but it isn't much fun, either. It's secured via pinch joints, so just a single bolt for the top half and a matching one on the bottom. You can pull back the carpeting and the trim bits and visually inspect the joint - just having someone turn the wheel while you look/listen/feel.
Honestly, though, I'd think this is not the problem. You'd feel any problems with the joint in the wheel I'd guess, and I can't imagine what would make a loud enough thunk in there. Perhaps the rack is bad or a balljoint on the other side got tweaked?
