I have had two front control arms and a ball joint replaced on my 2001 Ford Escape but the clanking noise is still there when I drive over washer board type roads.

Hi there,

I would be getting the rest of the suspension inspected, particularly the shockers, as they may have faulty bushings or weak internal valving, start here.
