There are various suspension bushings that can wear out and cause clunking. It is very common to have the toe link bushings and rear lower control arm bushings to wear out and begin clunking. I don't think JimLab has bushings for these locations. You must buy Mazda parts.

Bushings and wheel bearings. Jim's bushings are a nice upgrade, but they do not address any of the clunky parts.
