Ford Galaxy - Heavy sounding rattle - littleolliez

I have a p reg galaxy which has had a heavy sounding rattle across the front seems to be around the footwell area. It seems to knock/rattle more when going in a straight line when cornring it seems not so bad. It has been getting worse for a couple of years but flies through the mot. Ive replaced the anti roll bar bushes and still the same. The last mot has an advisory for the nearside steering rack inner arm could this be the problem. Also noticed tyres wearing badly inside of one outside of the other side. Are the steering rack inner arms also known as the inner steering rack ends. Thanks in anticipation.
