Default my lady friends corolla

has an annoying bumping sound coming from the front end
I first heard it when she took a turn while pressing the brakes so I assumed warped rotor
but then it just continued on as if the passenger front tire is hitting something
pretty sure it's an 00 or 01. my next guesses were bearing or ball joint. something is loose or worn in the steering or general area. it's obviously not engine related

any guesses before she pays for a shake down?

Strut towers or the upper bushings? Shake it down yourself. Jack it up, shake tire side to.side and up and down. Then drive forward a couple hairs and have her stop fast while you stare at it. Make sure the tire does not jolt forward. That would be some control arm bushings.

Check the sway bar bushings and end links as well.
