New tires.new brakes, new power steering pump, does not have alignment problem, engines runs fine...jack up take pressure off tires no thump sound....do not where this is coming from.feels somewhere in te center of the front wheel drive system...but no hestitation or lose of speed from transmission ?
My thought would be to look at the u joints and drive line. When driving the car and it makes the thumbing sound shift to natural, if the sound stops it is probably in drive line.

Coould be your ball joint. One way to check to see if it is the bearings is to jack the car and grab hold of the tire and give it a twisting motion, one hand on the top of the tire and one hand at the bottom...push/pull type method. You should have almost no play in it whatsoever. Inspect your ball joints. Look for torn boots....means no grease.
If you replaced only one strut, it would be advisable to take the car in for a front end alignment.
Let us know what you find.

Dropping the strut should be sufficient......
