Default chatter from left front wheel area... 93cx

my car has started making a chattering in the left front corner... sounds suspension related because it's louder when the road is rough. metal on metal sound... what could this be?

thanks!

Get the wheel off the ground and see if it moves back and forth(left to right)...if so...tie rod end most likely. Does the car seem to "steer itself" when you hit a bump?

Man, I need to put my new ones in...

Not urgent...but you'll start to see "scalping" on the inside of the tire (kinda like camber wear, but uneven).
