clunking , rattle sound from front wheel area

[mattcheng]

Hi All ,

I have a camry 2000 , conquest (v6 ,3.0L) making a rattle from passenger side wheel area.

It happens when it hits a bump or goes thought rough pavement.

I have tried to sway car up and down but could not hear anything.

I have found that there is a worn out bushing on lower control arm.

could it be a problem or something else?

Does anyone have the same experience and dose it easy to fix ?

A small rock?

Ive had that happen before would make noise on braking and on bumps.

Could be your struts ****ting them self.
