I revised first front, than back. After revizing front the clunky noise was gone, but there was something i couldn't locate. Afetre revising back, this was also gone. Both (front and back) where out of grease. And the grease left was extremly dry and old. Also rotated the bearing 90 degree, so it could wear on another area.

I don't know the FCP Euro aftermarket product FCP Euro ID: 480298. From the photo this just looks like a polyurethan bushing insert - which in my opinion is crap (the red thing) - and not like an OEM part.

OEM parts are made by TRW. Meyle and others produce also in OEM quality.

This is how the parts should look like:
