Lower control arm Clunk and Squeak

Hello!

Been chacing a clunk that has been driving me crazy.
it happens when cornering right while breaking. Also when driing very low speeds. and when turning the wheel left and right while stopped.

car has 30k miles, it was hit on the driver side in a very minor accident against a light post.

2.5 inch eiback 5100 front and back and ome nstalled around the same time.

so not sure if it's from the accident or the suspension install.

alignment people left the cam bolts lose, I retorqued them to 150lb problem still there.

Could be a number of things but Check the bolts with a wrench and socket which is tedious Check all the bolts are niece and tight and there's no play in the steering rack, sway bar bushings etc. The skids bolts are good and the skids are not coming in contact with anything. The springs are perched correctly and not shifting. lower shock bolts good. Also bump stops are nice and tight.

Thanks I will continue to check bolt by bolt. I did post a video link as you where typing that. the play comes from the lower control arm bushings. was wondering if that play seems normal?
