Default Knocking sound in 06 RX400h

Hi guys.
I bought an old RX400h for driving to work and back. I have a bit of mechanical experience so I though it’s a good idea.
changed shocks/struds control arms+ball joints, sway bars and linkage.
the problem is I still hear a knocking sound infront and it’s driving me crazy.
everything is snug and tight. The motor mounts are in good condition I simply don’t get where that noise is coming from.
if someone has a light to shine on this I would really appreciate it

thank you in advance

Replaced everything except the tie rod ends.
I only hear knocking when driving in town slow. Once I pick up speed more than 40mph it stops. So weird
