I’m getting a clunking or thumping while I drive. Its happening when I drive straight. And I can feel my steering wheel moving side to side along with the thump. . I changed the strut. And the lower control arm and I’m still getting the issues. Anyone have any ideas as what it could be?

Bubble on tire. Bad wheel bearings.

Sounds like a tire. Swap front to back, back to front.

i changed the tire already and still same issue

Since there are 2 tires on the front how do you know you changed the right one?
Is the one you changed a new tire?

because the noise is coming from the left side while I drive. And I can feel that it’s the left side

So you will not even consider a hub/bearing?

You're going to have to give us more information. Does it increase proportionately with vehicle speed? Or engine speed? Is it steady and rhythmic, or is it a random thump?

Did you go through the thread that is linked to in donbrew's signature?

yes I will surely consider it. I’ve been watching videos and haven’t found one with the same noise as mine but I might change it anyways

Video is not absolute in the sound department, did you change both sides LCA’s and struts?
you might be if you only did the one side. I highly recommend always changing both sides, so order a pair of hubs.
At RockAuto they give us a discount, go to market place click on supporting vendors look at the first sticky thread.

I suggest you double check the torque on the rear LCA bolts. 74 ft lbs , then 180 degrees more
