Do you know what is causing the noise? There are about 30 different major parts that are part of the front suspension, plus you have steering components, etc. Just replacing parts is a waste of money and it could get VERY expensive, very quickly.

(IMG:http://www.trademotion.com/schematics/mechanical/F531050.gif)

I think you need to narrow down what is causing the noise before you just start replacing parts. Once you narrow down what part is your issue, then recommendations to how to replace and best price could be made.
