Hey Robster,
I've been chasing a clunk from the passenger front for a while now too. No clunk on slow undulating bumps, but hear the clunking on quick suspension movements. Someone here suggested a motor mount to me at one time and I guess that is possible. What specifically are you hearing and where are you located? Sometimes a comparison helps.
Parts I've changed in addition to your list (some for other reasons, but all done in the last ~10K miles) are steering rack, wheel bearing, shock and spring. So quite literally the only thing left for me is UCA bushing, LCA bushings and spring seat bushing.
I might try and find a small microphone or something and move it around to different locations to see if I can isolate mine. With my self diagnosed OCD, its driving me a bit more nuts. Interested to hear your results.
Take Care
Nate
