loud bangin

When I drive on the front right side whenever i hit a little bump or little pot hole my car bangs hard like if the shocks are completely wasted, this only happends to the front right side, the left side is fine, and it just began yesterday. It bangs and feels like the tire is unstable like it's about to pop off, the lug nuts are tight, the tire doesnt shake, is it either the strut need to be replaced or the bushing?

Could also be the bumpstop if its when you hit a bump. But most likely what clive said. I'd start looking for new front struts. Its a good idea to replace them both.

i would deffinitly check the srut mounts- have the car lifted and with a bar under the tire push it up/down if there is movement in the mount time to replace
