Default Rattling,Klinging noie in front end

I have an annoying noise coming from my car (sounds like front end) when I go over bumps. It's a metal on metal rattle sounds, or another way to describe it is metal washers klinging together. Does anyone know what this is. I just replaced upper and lower balljoints and tie rod ends, the noise was present since about 90k and asked the service tech......can't seem to figure it out. Now have 169k

I had this problem and believe or not it was a little heat shield that cracked on the passenger side of the engine right up under the duct from the MAF sensor to the engine cover. Its a really thin piece of metal and wont be too hard to spot if your GS is 300 and your eyes are in the right area GL
