front suspension sway

I have a 01 with 108,000 miles on it.The is lound clunking noise like metal to metal contact when I go over bumps at low speeds.Steering has no play but pulls slightly to the right ,has factory 18' wheels on it.

Whenever I go over bumps the car sways side to side like a seasaw.feels unstable at times.

Yesterday had the car on car lift and visually checked the front suspension components but nothing indicating a problem was obvious.The ball joint,outer tie rod,control arm,drop links all seem intact but there is slight side to side play with steering tie rod,Is it normal?Does anybody has had a similar issue,your expeirence will help pin point the issue.
Sway bar bushing is intact too but a has slight play,any input as to what I should be looking for
