its the outer steering ends
bout 200 to for both.
easy to check, take off the tire and hold the steering end and shake it a little, u should hear the noise u were talkin about. oh the stabiliser bars too, same thing to check. oh heres a easier way to check, jack up the front and shake the tires, if it have any play is the steering ends.
