Thanks Bala!
I just now have to figure out which suspension part/s need replacing! Theres a big clunking sound over bumps... It's very hard to tell which side.
I wonder if a visual inspection of all the components would be enough to tell.
I would hate to pay $200 in parts that I did not need. I do all the labor so I'm not worried about shop costs.

No. Not unless your car suffered severe collision damage.

You need to get the suspension up in the air, and literally start pushing and pulling on parts, sometimes with a crowbar, to see if they are moving too freely.
