I hear a knock when ever I go over a bump on the drivers side. The steering wheel vibrates at time when I hit over 40 mph. What could be the problem?

Start here:

Raise car, put on stands. Grasp tire and push/pull both horizontally and vertically, if any movement then possible wheel bearing, ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing.

Check CV boots for any signs of leakage or cuts/rips in rubber boot.
