Last year i replace every single suspenion item and even went as far as to replacing the intermediate shafts in my diff.
I went a solid year with no clunks.
I heard the clunk the other day and checked the easiest… endlinks. I have the suspensionmaxx ones on so i grabbed the body and could easily rotate and shake it.
I tightened then up and it seem to have gone away. For a day. I put on the hellwig 7709 and went for a test drive. Clunk only backing out. Cany reproduce it otherwise.

I checked the suspensionmaxx links and one was loose again. Wtf

I am in same boat as you with suspension maxx links too. Thinking about going back to stockers and trashing those things. I'm taking the sway bar off this weekend and if I still get the clunk it has to be body mounts which I am told have fixed a lot of the clunks out there on rams.
 
Maybe try switching to the Mevotech TTX Front endlinks(?), they're OEM style but heavy duty with u/l grease zerks.
