Update, on just the right front: the clicking/looseness is the rack and not the inner tie rod ☹️. So I need to order a remanufactured one. The wheel bearing is tight and a little grindy (halfway done replacing it). The knock I was hearing from spinning the wheel back and forth is almost certainly the lower control arm ball joints. I’ll know for sure later today. Swaybar bushings looks okay, but replacing anyway
