Default Bushings and vehicle weight

Hi Guys

The truck’s an 03 1500 4x4 ST regular cab.

I changed the shocks recently but still experiencing excessive banging - especially in the front end - when hitting even the smallest of holes or speed bumps. I even decided to reduce air pressure in the tires a bit to soften the blow to the chassis.

I’m pretty sure that most or all of the bushings will need to be changed. Question: Which bushings carry the most vehicle weight? the lower control arms? something else?

Any thoughts and ideas will be most welcome.

Thanks!
