Default Banging sound from front suspension

Hello,

From what I have heard the suspension on the Mazda Tribute is 'harder' than the Escape to make it more sporty.

I have a feeling that mine is making too much noise but I am unsure if this is part of the 'sporty' thing.

Potholes usually make a bang, specifically on the front right wheel.

Any tips or experiences are welcome.

Thanks,

Abon

I suspect the strut is on its way out.

If it was a sway bar link you would hear that on minor bumps that affect one side.
