Rattle/drop noise from front suspension..HELP

Whats up been hearing a front drop/rattle noise from front suspension when hitting small dips/cracks/bumps ont he road not sure what it is, but want to replace ASAP.... Tie rods done yesterday!!!! But been hearing the noise before it was fixed (reason why I fixed and they were shot,

Thinking axle but don't hear a click sound when I turn, so ball joints or axle or motor mounts, but want to be right when I fix it to not waste money and time

Yeah it didn't do anything, that was good but worth it, since by the time I find out what is needed I'll have everything new, (axles,ball joints, tie rods already done, sway bar link, motor mounts, etc.

With the front with its noises, love how stiff suspension is tokico stock shocks on my 01 AE
