Front end clunck

Hello my 05 expedition started to have a front end clunk when I go over bumps. I need to get this fixed any ideas?

My old man's 04 does the same thing. We have narrowed it down to being either one of the struts/coil over shocks or a sway bar bushing. His mom's minivan made the same type of noise and it turned out to be the sway bar bushing. Unfortunately we have not had much time to replace anything so I cannot report with confidence as to what it could be.

How many miles on the truck? If 100,000 or more, I would start by replacing the struts.

Our 05 Freestyle had this same issue. It was the sway bar endlinks. $50 in parts and 15 minutes to replace.

Thanks yeah I will do the sway bar end links. I thought it was something with the sway bar. Then when I have the money I will do the struts. Because I am broke right now.

Could also be a ball joint...
