Clunking,rattling

I just want to make sure this is common before i spend the money.Over sharp bumps and speed bumps I get clunking from the rear which sounds like upper shock mountings,and the front sound like upper ball joint noise.Does this sound right?Arnott has some good prices for this stuff,but i don,t want to waste the money if that,s not the problem.
Thanks in advance guys.

I've got the same problem myself and have been wanting to fix to for awhile... the back most likely are the shock mounts... as for the front... I'm not sure to tell you the truth...

I had the same problem in the front left air strut. I replaced the whole strut (had some slow leaking too) As soon as the new one was put in, no more rattle! Hope that helps!

your right. I replaced my shocks ( $60 for one) shock mounts ( $30 for one) and uper ball joints ( $120 for one) and iner and outer tie rod's ( per side) the only clunking i have now is my exhaust hitiing the cross member by the gas tank.
