Default Knocking front suspension

does anyone suffer from a knocking noise from the front when going over sharp bumps... I read up thats it is common on older models.... I am trying figure out if i need new suspension or the rollbar bushes are worn.

NO it's not too common, well my 88.5 Camry V6, doesn't suffer from that problem (yet, but needs a new CV joint though). Check the condition of the suspension bushings. A visual check is not enough. The rubber bushings, externally may look fine, but inside, it may be destroyed.
