Ok so I finally got some extra cash and i want to get my front end fixed but i dont know where to start.

My car pulls to the right, wobbles when i take off in the morning, and clunks every once in a while Im thinking tie rod ends
and ball joints but im not for sure any help would be great thanks.

Inspect everything to find out what you need, or have it inspected. It's over 20 years old and we really can't tell what you need over the internet. We also have no clue what could have been replaced or if anything is original! I can make recommendations of parts to get and where to get them, but find out what you need first! Also, you will need a wheel alignment after replacing the steering / suspension parts which I'm sure you already know. Just find a place that offers free estimates if you want and go from there. Good luck! ;)

Yep, have to find out what's wrong first. The every once in a while clunk could also be ball joints. Pulling to the right is either an alignment issue or even a low or bad tire.

Clunk when turning sometimes is the control arm bushings. These cars seem to eat them at least the ones I've had.

Havent done much to it lately but i have been having some starter problems and overheating problems. The antifreeze spewed outta the resevoir when i pulled in the garage and the gauge wasnt even passed halfway. Hasnt done i since but i havent driven it much. Installed my MRZ strut bar that i got from Chris. Also touched up a few spots with some spray paint.

Did you use the sand paper pieces I had there to help lock the parts together, so they can't slide under stress? That's why I made them. ;)

Yeah they are still there. I just cut the edges off more to hide them.

Bought a few things today for my car today; Black filler panel, clear side markers, and bmw E36 headlights. I cant wait to get everything and put it on. In the meantime i put on my new rear strut bar. Found some rust i didnt know about kinda mad about that. Here are some pics.
