I hit a curb and bent my rim a few weeks ago. I replaced wheel but now I hear a clucking noises like metal rattling now, but only when I hit a bump with the passenger front wheel, the same side I hit the curb with. One person thought it was a axle another said the strut what all can it possibly be?

Strut, anti-sway bar link, loose brake pad, deteriorated control arm bushing, bent brake splash shield

A loose brake pad will not rattle when you hold light pressure on the brake pedal.
