Default Clunking noise

Hello! I am new here i just purchased a 1996 F350, crew cab, 2wd, V8 with 81K on it. It runs and drives great! The problem is that i have a clunking noise in the truck somewhere and am hoping there is someone out there that can lead me to the problem. It is mostly when driving around in it over the bumps and rougher roads, there is sometimes a squeak when turning and after the turn, and the a clunking noise in the drivetrain somewhere. I changed out the sway bar bushings frnt and rear as they looked worn out, check the ball joints and they seem tight, the u joints seem good.... any one out there have a clue what it might be? Thanks in advance.. Scott

could be spring slap. the front springs slap together when you hit a bump. try putting a piece of rubber between the two pieces. Mine does it
