when i go over a bump theres a bit of a clatter from the f/ns more so than the o/s ive replaced the lower suspension wishbones (both sides) but cant fathom it out, the fiesta mk 3 passed the mot last week so they didnt spot owt could it be the track rod end ball joint , or better whats the best way to check all the possible components that may be at fault? cheers

suspension weak, broken spring, you really need to jack this up and check for either the spring or play in any steering/suspension parts use a bar to check with and prop it under the wheel when jacked up and lever the wheel up looking for any play etc?? good luck
