Help, "noise" coming from the front end

Yesterday when driving home in my car, I noticed my car "popping and clanking" as i went in reverse and then proceed to accelerate. Basically, every tire revelation there is a very distinct clank and pop feeling coming from the passenger side front end of my car. I have no clue what this may be but i hope its nothing too major. My car is a 2003 wrx with just 50,000 miles but have the following suspension mods. Tein flex coilovers, whiteline 27 front sway bar, 24 rear bar, whiteline alk, whiteline spherical endlinks in the front, regular endlinks in the rear, and front and rear strut bars. Any insight on a potential problem would be appreciated.

It's probably a half-shaft. They aren't "fun" to replace, but not the end of the world either
