Pop! What'd I Break?

In the spring when I was changing over to my summer tires I had my wagon jacked up replacing the drivers side rear. As it went up (and correspondingly put pressure on the front end) I heard a distinct "Pop" almost like metal snapping from the drivers side front. Immediately after (and still today) there is a soft clunking noise when I go over slight bumps. Nothing major and it's not setting any worse. And the noise doesn't seem to be coming from the struts. The front end doesn't bounce, it doesn't bottom out adn it doesn't handle any differently. Thoughts? Control arm? Strut mounts? Bushings?

Anything I can check without the benefit of a lift?

TIA - I'll be changing back over to the winters soon as the MXVs are starting to finally wear out.
