hey, yesterday i was driving around and when i got back onto the road going to my house (its a back road and bumpy) i began hearing a metallic clunk everytime i hit a good size bump. I took off the front right tire today and looked around but nothing looked out of place at all. Supposedly the front end was done by the guy who had the car before me not too long ago. I sense it may be a ball joint or a strut, anybody know how i can check to see if thats what it is? Anybody have any other ideas? Thanks a lot guys!!! Your help is really appreciated.

strut mounts (tend to fail in b4s), sway bar bushings, ball joints (or maybe they've come loose in the control arms after being inproperly torqued). tie rod ends. control arm bushings. just check all of your front end torques. look for loose things or cracked rubber. do it with the car jacked up so you can wiggle your wheels.
