Im getting a thumping/clanking noise on the front end of my 400 seems like is only when making a right turn or taking off from a total stop, I've tried pushing up/down on the (R) fender to see if it makes the noise (nada doing this), basically im trying to identify if it's the ball joint or tie rods, is there a sure way to tell, im taking off the wheel tomorrow to have a closer look, and if it is either one of those 2 things should I just replace that specific side or both sides necessary, I ask because are kinda low right now where's the best price for these sewell or carson?

check your control arm bushings mostly the castor arm bushing does you car front end shake at 55-65 like your wheels are out of balance or you have warped rotors sometimes it you bushings check those they seem to go out quick on these cars

No I dont get no shake at all, the noise doesn't even replicate going over bumps. ball joints at sewell after discount are $75 each side

go underneath the car and have someone turn the steering wheel for u. when you replace anything, its best to replace in pairs. dont just change one side.

check wheel bearings, front shocks, front control arms, etc
