Got some work done this weekend on the front suspension left & right
My case was a clunking sound which happens mostly while accelerating from a dead stop and while vehicle is coming to a stop. Vehicle is 65k miles (105k km)

Upon inspection i noticed lower control arm (the smaller one) and stabilizer linkage were both worn out.
Its not an easy task, took more than 7hours also used the opportunity to change the brake pads

The thing is all the parts you highlighted cant go bad all at once for example a bad strut would be visibly leaking.
The linkage i replaced and control arm, their joints were so easy to move round but the new ones were hard and needed alot pressure.
So i ll advise u do more inspection before going all out on parts.
