Need 2018 Ford F-150 ball joints, control arms, hubs, or a front-end kit? 2018 is 13th-gen aluminum-body F-150 (2015–2020). This is not 2009–2014 12th-gen, not Super Duty, and not Raptor / Tremor (different front end).
A clunk at low speed is usually a ball joint or sway link. Wander or inner-edge tire wear is more often a tie rod or a worn control-arm bushing. Most people replace the control arm as a complete unit with the ball joint already pressed in. Growl that rises with road speed points at the hub/bearing.
