I have replaced everything but the rack and pinion, everything. While the vehicle is parked you can shake it and bounce on it as hard as you want and there is no sound. When you drive it and hit a small bump there is a boomp boomp every time. Any ideas would be appreciated.
There is no noise in the rack and pinion while parked and turning the steering wheel. Also you cannot feel any bump in the steering wheel while driving. It’s also a 2wd.

Are the lower ball joints greaseable ? Mine was making that noise and the ball joints just needed more grease. That or the swaybar end links.

Non greasable ball joints. I replaced the sway bars ends first, but it’s been awhile. They are greaseable, May replace them again.
