I will add, based on my experience with two Ridgelines and two Odysseys, that this problem will likely persist even if you throw new parts at it. Bumpy or washboard roads will equal quirky clunks. I have replaced end-links and bushings and it helps, but it has not entirely solved the problem. I wont replace struts until I have a good reason to (they aren't cheap) so I am stuck with clunks for now. No problems on smooth pavement, so I live with it.

If end links don't fix it, I will remove them entirely and tie the stabilizer bar up and out of the way and then go for a drive to remove the bar from the equation completely. Our 2005 MDX has 125k miles on it and is completely silent (and on factory parts). I know this chassis design is capable of being quiet -- a clunking noise has to be coming from somewhere. Hmm...
Good plan. Let us know your findings please.
