whenever i brake, i get this weird clunk from the front end and the car sort of jumps, or shakes along w/ the braking....i was thinking it was some loose suspension parts or blown struts, but i checked all that and it seemed ok, and it sometimes does it over bumps and such but mainly under braking...can you guys tell me what it is?

How violent is the jumping, could be warped rotors but more details would be great. Also this should probbably be in Tech Talk it would get more feedback there i'm sure.

the rotors are warped, but that couldnt be it, the jumping is very harsh it feels like the front suspension is about to fall out or something????

Mine had a clunk when i would hit the brakes but not when i was stopped and pushed the break. Found out today it was a loose front tension rod. Everythings fine now.

Usally when you hear a clunk when you brake its your tension rods. Search and you will find most of the things that could make this happen.
