Default 97 S10 4WD 4.3V6 knocking from front suspnension

Hi Forum,

I recently hear some knocks on my Blazer which comes from the front
if I do a curve.

It sounds like from the lower control arm.

What are the weak points.

I have already replaced the lower joints

Mine does that to I replaced the bump-stops but it didn't help a whole lot.
I plan on replacing the cv axles when I get some extra money.

On my 98 i have had a knocking/clunking that was coming from what sounded like the passenger front area. Come to find out it was some bushing for the torsion bar. On another note, my dad has a 96 s-10 pickup that had a similar knocking/clunking and it ended up being the brake caliper. The bolt holes just wore out enough to allow the movement. Good luck in finding what it is.
