There's no way to "test" the parts. I just replaced every part but the rear toe-link in my 2002 base Boxster, and the parts all felt fine if you moved them around by hand, but the suspension was clunking, squeaking, and groaning a ridiculous amount. With new parts, no more suspension noise.

The lower control arms are unlikely to be making clunking noises, they usually squeak or groan.

How many miles on your car? Superior Porsche engineering ensures that most of the parts wear out prematurely at around the same time, although #8 seems to wear out prematurely first.
