2004 Jeep Grand Cherokee makes a quiet clunking sound when I am almost at a complete stop. Sounds like its coming from front end, but there are no loose mounts (my mechanic's initial thought), had bearings replaced, brakes are new. Sound is driving me nuts every time I stop at a corner or traffic light!

You will need several tools to replace the bearing besides a socket set of metric and standard sizes to remove the wheel and brake caliper. A 36mm socket (may be rented at some auto parts stores) An Impact Wrench for the 36mm socket (air or electric should work) A torque wrench (IMPORTANT!)- the 3 rear bearing bolts (12mm?) need to be torqued properly or else they will fail and cause the wheel to separate, i believe they need to be at 75 ft/lbs. Please check. Do not attempt to do this yourself unless you have the proper tools and know how to use them.  I recommend getting at least the Haynes manual that the stores have or buying the Dealers Service Manual (expensive but thorough and usually available on ebay!)

It would be kind of hard to explain, but you may want to check your wheel bearings. Sounds like your wheel is binding. If you jack the front up, grab your tire, and shake. Sort of like you are trying to turn the wheel your self with out the steering wheel. Then do the same up and down. If you have a lot of play, then your wheel bearing is shot. And with a 4WD, you have to replace it because its sealed, where as on a 2WD, you can tighten them. For the pitman arm, and the gear box, you may have to get a haynes manual to find. But the gear box will be the box that your steering shaft goes into and connects to the tierods. Not too hard to find.

you must replace and lube the front sway bar bushings,chrysler service bulletin calls it a squak, but can sound like a rubbing, a clunk etc the common factor is this is really noticeable the colder it gets outside

well then it sounds to me as if you need a transmission replacement...a flush or service at this point won't do you any good, as the transmission is using the contamination in the fluid to build pressure. so if you flush it all away, then the new fluid is way too thin to build any pressure...just replace your transmission....

Any noise from the rear axle can be coming from many different causes, depending upon exactly what you are doing when the noise happens.
Check all mounting points and make sure none of the bushings are loose and that all hardware is tight. Jack up both rear wheels and check for play in the wheel assemblies, Check for any up and down play in the pinion yoke and excessive turning distance in the pinion itself (how far you need to turn the pinion before the rear wheels begin to turn). Also check the driveshaft universal joints for rust or excessive play. You need to find what is worn or broken before you can fix the problem. If you can duplicate the noise while standing still, have someone look underneath while you get it to make the noise. You may actually be able to see what is moving.
