Rattle in front susp, feel it in steering wheel also.

Recently i changed the sway bar links and sway bar bushings in the front hoping that would stop the rattling problem somewhere in the suspension but unfortunately it didn't help. Rattle is most apparent on small bumps or slightly uneven road. Not only do i hear the rattling, I also feel it slightly in the steering wheel.
So what else could be causing this rattling?

sounds like either:

1. your tie rod ends are shot
2. you don't have the uppper strut bolt tightened down enough
