*title should say front right or passenger side*

So its been a few months since I lowered my car but I sort of put this problem on the back burner because it doesn't seem to affect the drive-ability of the car.

Basically right after I had my brand new bilsteins and H&Rs installed the front right tire would produce a rattling/thumping sound when I hit a bump, similar to the sound you get when you have a bad shock but not exactly the same. I've had the car in multiple tire shops as well as taken it back to the mechanic who installed the suspension parts and they all say they can't find anything visibly wrong with the setup.

Has anyone else experienced this/have any ideas where to start?

Thanks

Solved. Took it back to my mechanic and he said it was a bushing. It was hard to understand his English but I don't think he said anything about the LCA if anything he said strut mount bushing I think?
