Rattles and clunks? Try checking your brake pads. Without the shims, they can move more than you think.

Spoken like someone who spent four months trying to fix the same problem, which vanished after he replaced his pads.

Oh, and note that vibration is REALLY common in my experience. Few roads around here are even and level... I've just gotten accustomed to it... and balancing my tires every time I change the oil...
