Recently the pass front side of my 02 9-3, 98k mi started thudding and lost dampening after hitting a big pothole. Mechanic's diagnosis was a leaking strut and control arm with bad bushing. Went ahead and replaced strut mount, strut insert and control arm plus alignment. I believe ball joints are part of the control arms and are not replaceable, you'll need to replace the control arms. If your suspension components are original, you're prob overdue for a refresh. If strut mount is being replace, you should consider new strut insert also, and vice versa.
