2014 SR5 Suspension Clunk/Creak

[leftcoastsurf]

I have a 2014 SR5 with approx 100k miles on it with Eibach shocks set at 0.85" in the front. Shocks have been on for about 2 years. I have an intermittent clunk that seems to happen at full suspension compression and only over certain bumps. Those certain bumps seem to be quite common here in Puerto Rico though. Also, when it is a little cooler and wet, the clunk seems to happen when braking hard and then accelerating fast. I replaced the rotors and pads not long ago but the clunk was there before this work and everything was torqued to spec. I removed the sway bar and everything sounded much worse so I know its not that. I had Pep Boys try to find it and they were not helpful at all. They adjusted the toe, checked ball joints and tie rod ends and that is about it. As far as driving goes, steering seems tight and other driving dynamics seem normal. It doesn't seem serious but it is driving me nuts that I can't figure out. Here is a video that I thought might help but, to my eye I haven't spotted anything out of the ordinary. Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated!

Hoping someone has an idea. I will probably be taking to the Toyota dealer next week to fix a TPMS so I will have them check it out. However, I have much more faith in this community in helping track this down.

Kinda sounds like a metal-on-metal bearing failure/clunk.

I would check the torque on the cam bolts and also check that the lca bushings aren’t worn. I have a similar (although less frequent) front end clunk on my 2016 and I’ve narrowed it down to worn bushings

hmmm I didn't consider that. Wouldn't a bearing cause noise and vibration at certain speeds?

Thanks for the suggestion! During the troubleshooting I have done so far I checked the cam bolts and they were slightly less than torque specs. No change in the noise after torquing to spec. The bushings seem to look okay but I am thinking it may be them. I changed them out on my 2000 4Runner and the clunk was similar but much louder.
