Default front end noise

I got a 2001 2500 2wd and I have this front end nosie that I can't figure out what it is. I thought it was the upper ball joint cause it was loose but it still makes the same nosie after I got it changed. It just makes a nosie, it makes like a knocking nosie when I hit bumps, I have replaced the hub a couple months ago.

My truck just started doing the same thing. Also does it on a hard stop with a trailer. It makes a thud noise in the front end. If anyone has any ideas, please chime in.

Good to hear... I've got a new set of Bilsteins ready to install and I'm hoping my problem is the same as yours.
