Thanks for all the suggestions. I'll check things out this weekend.

The car has about 138k miles on it. I don't think it's the rack; it's been checked by two shops, and there is no discernable play when I grab each tire and try to make it move.

My new shop checked all of the bushings and the front were all good. (I trust these guys - they rebuild classic cars and the shop has some pretty neat vehicles: a Lotus, 1932 Marmon completely rebuilt, Jaguars, Porsche, a 1970 MGB that made me pine for my mis-spent youth, and more.)

Can't make it rattle by rocking the bumper, but I'll look at the strut nuts, the sway bar brackets (which have recent IPD poly bushings)

I had the rear control arm bushings replaced last year, but I'll look there anyway.
