Suspension bump -> BOOM
Past week or three I have been encountering issue where I hit a pot hole, mismatched driveway lip, or some other sizable road anomaly, the sound telegraphed into the frame is hugely amplified. Bump becomes ->BOOM<- I had struts done on the car about a year ago or less, and the boom does sound similar to when I had a strut fail and had the new Bilstein's installed.
I can' t find any excessive front end bounce, and have also heard a sound like the exhaust hitting the underside of the on medium bumps or any low RPM engine shudders (especially when cold) though I can't find any evidence of that.
May be looking at two different issues.
Any help appreciated.

The ball joint comes as part of the lower control arm. On a high mileage car the lower control arm can be and usually is very difficult to remove.
