knock knock knock.. ARRRRGGH

[supercuprar]

im tearing my hair out with this knocking noise from the front end of my lcr ! ive had the top mounts changed thinking its that and ive had the ARB looked at , when i go over bumps it knocks and if i wiggle the steering wheel left and right quickly it makes the same sound even on flat roads... so im guessing its steering related any ideas ?

please help while i still have some hair left .....

how loud is the knock mate? as i had have/had the problem. Got my droplinks changed and it stopped.....but if your turning right and hit a water grate or the road surface is patchy I get a knock from the left side. turning left I have no problems????

i also have this problem, i took my lcr in for a service recently and they found that my lower ball joint is excesvly worn, have'nt replaced it yet but might be worth checking yours.
