What am I looking for when my 1996 Lincoln Town Car makes a clunking noise when the front end goes into a dip in the road and or turns the wheel to the right?
hard to say, look at the ball joins , axles and or bushings on the control arm.(look at the boots on the axles. make sure they're not broken)
96 Town car does not have front axles or boots, it's a rear drive car--- the rest of the above answer is reasonable. I have a 96 and a 99 Lincoln and both make this noise. Started when they both had less than 30,000 miles. Have looked, checked, had it in a front end alignment shop, etc etc, but can't find cure. I don't worry about it anymore.

It's either something loose or something worn out. I'd start with the shocks then look at the ball joints.

Very possible it is the right side half shaft.
