I've had this car for about 2 years now. At first there were some noises coming from both sides. Over the next couple of months the ball joint from the driver side broke as well as my axle while driving it. Replaced ball joint w/arm and axle. Then other side was making noises so changed arm from passenger side. And now I have this annoying noise coming from my driver side again. I changed both shocks brand new hoping that would fix the problem but it stil does it. Sounds like somehting is loose and is hiting against another piece of metal like if somehting was about to break when I look under the car nothing is loose. What is this noise any help is appreciated

Check for a broken sway bar link. This small rod attaches the sway bar to the control arm.

So this was done before the question? If yes, check your calipers fo missing or worn out rubber, pin guides. And bad anti-rattle clips!
