Rattle in the front suspension.

I have a rattle in my right front suspension. Not sure what it is. It don't happen constantly, just when I run over a speed bump or any bump for that matter. I replace the hub recently because it was roaring. This problem was happening before that replacement. I was told maybe strut mount. I was thinking ball joint. Any info?

Get used to owning a cobalt
Things to look at or replace:
Trailing Control arm bushings
Sway bar end links
Sway bar mount bushings
Tie rods (usually outter)
Ball joints
Strut mount or bearing
Steering rack(make sure bolts are tight not only was mine broken internally but the bolts were barely tight)
Steering intermediate shaft
Axle shaft and cv
Engine cradle mount bolts

Lots of threads on here on random clunks but that is about all ive seen people check and replace
