Steering problem

[kona_mtb]

I already searched but couldn't find anything that sounded relevant to my problem. Its a two fold problem. When I am turning I will occasionally get a loud clunk noise. Secondly, when I am reversing and come to a stop I get a clunk from the front end again. I can't see these problems being unrelated, what do you think? I have checked but can't see anything that looked wrong but have never really handled a steering problem so need a little guidance.

lastly, my shocks are extremely bad and need replacement, I will be replacing them soon but could this be related?

i would say that it could be ur shocks but mine is doing the same thing and someone said that it could be the bushings. mine look brand new so i am not sure if thats what it causing it and someone said u can pick some up at autozone for $20 but i havent looked to deap into it
