02 liberty sport frontend sway

[richliberty]

Liberty has front end sway, slight pull to the right, large bang occurs when hitting a street intersection dip at a higher speed..(i know slow down right) appears to be on passenger front side. Where to begin on this, any insight is appreciated.

Welcome to the forums.
Are the front tries worn evenly? Have you ever rotated the tires?
When was the last time the Jeep had an alignment?
The alignment shop will do a front end inspection and often the sway bar end links may be torn or not tight.

Tires are fine, im a new owner and attempting to get it back to origional condition, perhaps the end links need new bushings, would the end links be a culprit to the clunk sound when hitting a dip or bump?

Yes it is a possibility that the endlink is causing the clunk. Torques spec is 100 ft lbs and the first thing to check over well for tears/torque.
Endlink is sold as complete unit. Mopar is best, many use the Moog: see this link:

Since it is pulling to right, definitely allow the alignment shop to fully inspect the front end over good & perform an alignment.

I will get the links replaced then aligned, i will post after the repair. Thank You TC!!

Also have them check the ball joints & bearing/ hubs for any play.
