Question Clicking as suspension works- control arms?

Howdy,
When going slow I notice a slight clicks nose coming from the front left suspension. I'm thinking control arm bushings as the possible culprit. Before I dive into it, has anyone replaced the control arms themselves and have any tips?

Clicking I would assume as a half shaft, check your boots for cuts and leaks

I recently replaced the lower control arms. The biggest difficulty I encountered was separating the ball joint. Make sure you understand how the eccentric bolts are configured; only rotate the nut when removing.
