I noticed that when I break I get a loud clunk and can feel it under my feet driver side ? any Ideas ?
 






Several ideas:

ball joints loose
radius arm bushings loose

to make it short: anything in the front/rear suspension that is loose. I might start by checking the RA bushings because they go bad fairly frequently on these.
 






Yah that's it Radius are bushing, Now how hard are they to replace ? I see lots in my way ?
 






There are many posts on the RA bushings. Do a search. If they are original, they (rivets) will have to be drilled and replaced with grade 8 bolts. Not much $$, but a fair amount of work.
