Default help me solve my suspension noise.

I've had this noise coming from the front of the car for just about ever (seriously liek 5 years).When I hit a dip or pothole I get this knocking noise. When I back out the drive way it happens. The roads in Louisiana suck so that's just about all I hear when driving and it's driving me nuts. My car is lowered and the front suspension consists of: no swaybar, lakewood 90/10's and foxbody 4 cyl springs (cut), steeda c&c plates. Do I need to get a bumpsteer kit, ball joints... what? If you've had this problem and found the fix please let me know.
Mike

If there is no noise when you brake it make be a pad issue on your brakes.

no it happens while driving not braking (unless I hit a pothole while braking)

Where the noises happen before you suspension install? Bump steer just makes the car hop around when you hit a bump.
