The two rear subframe bushings can fail early. Anders replaced mine at ~95K. Clunking under your feet went away. One way to check is to put the car on jack stands and then put the jack under the subframe and see if it moves up 1/2 inch or so when you apply pressure. It should not.
I am going to replace the 4 forward ones as well in the near future. It is a much more involved job, but you can feel the slack in the steering.
Now on to the FSDs. My fronts wore out after 10K miles and I returned them to Koni for replacement under warranty. They stood behind their product, and the new ones are OK after about 20K more.
