Banging noise from front

I have a banging noise when I hit bumps coming out of the front passanger side from every bump. I have changed tie rod, strut, wheel bearing, spring. What am I missing that can bang.

Ball joint, control arm bushing, caliper bolts & bushings.

Check your top strut nut make sure it's snug. Sometimes you may think the gun's zipped it down enough...

Is your car lowered w/ -camber? Sometimes the body of my strut hits my inner fender.
