I'm at about 101000 miles right now. I figured if start replacing as much as I can now before the problem causes more problems. The only thing is I don't have much money to spend on this right now so I'm trying to do everything on the lowest budget possible.

clunking noise in front pass. side wheel well
When I drive my 05 S40 T5 (FWD) over any size bump the front passenger wheel makes a clunking noise, it also shakes in the floor board (I can feel it on my foot through the pedals).
