First off the alt. belt is too tight. loosen it. should go away. and if its a clunk in the frount end i would guess it is your struts or bushings or both.

'95 Dodge Caravan has a wobble kinda.

How are the tires wearing, could you need an alignment? Is the anti sway bar broken? When I hear that you have a clunking noise while accelerating I want to blame your CV joints, are you sure they are fine?

I have a 2005 grand caravan that makes a clunk noise when I put it in park. Should I be concerned? It has 62000 miles on it.

check the front engine mount. it is probably worn.
have someone shift from reverse to drive to reverse to drive while holding their foot on the brake. if the mount is bad the engine will rock back and forth as the gears are shifted. i have a 1988 caravan and it is just a few bolts to replace it. the mount i bought last week cost $17

2003 Dodge Caravan Front end clunk.

Had similar problem with 2003 Dodge GC. Replaced the parts you mention + rack & pinion, then to fix the now noticable whining noise, replaced power steering pump and pulley. Fortunately was under an extended warrentee at 46k miles.
