Is that the blade type?

 If it is check the that mounting bolts are secure on the a-frame bracket, also make sure the big bolt that holds it into the tow hitch mount is tight.

Other problem could be that the friction pads in the device need changing.

They do make a creaking noise but not normally clonks!

Clipped the kerb? Tight turn? I have known blade type stabilisers to come off.

Even snapping the plastic guide off the arm. If you make a tight turn does the blade contact the ball or caravan?
