noise when i go over bumps
 
ok
i've done the shocks, ball joints, cv joints
what else could be making noise
its kinda like a rattle when i go over potholes, even when going slow over little bumps sometimes
the ball joint/ lower control arm was definatly bad, is there something that else that would have went bad because of that?

thanks

Assuming nothing was botched on the strut job, if the rattles come from the front, the intermediate shaft that sits between the steering column and steering gear is well known for that. Search for TSB "#06-02-32-007D" here or on the web. If it's from the rear, something that's not easily diagnosed is the upper shock mount area.

i dont think its the steering issue, i know the sound that makes
seems to be on the front drivers side

Then, it could be stabilizer links or even brake pads. See if you can rent or borrow a Chassis Ear gadget and then narrow the location down.
