2001 Outback - rattle from front of car - tierods maybe?

I know this is an impreza board, but you guys are so smart

I have a 2001 Outback wagon. The front seems to rattle a bit as I go over minor bumps. What does that sound like to you guys?

I was thinking tierods. Any other ideas?

Is it a rattle or a thump? A thumping is usually as loose top bolt on a strut. Rattles could literally be a million things. Start with your exhaust heat shields.

It's more of a rattle, but I'll check the strut.
