I had the same noise and it was the top mount of the shock . I was able to replicate the sound by lifting the car up and down . I put both hands at front wheel arch and lifted the car up and down , sound was very easy to hear . Might be worth a punt as i found all bushes etc to be ok .

You'll need a pry bar to move stuff not hands. Put a pry bar in between tie bars/ arm/ etc and get easy movement. If smooth movement it normally means all ok but moving stuff around with the force of a bar you may be able to see splits in bushes etc.

Maybe check the brake disc cover plates, they tend to rattle like a bugger once they come loose.
