MG MGF Technical - MGTF suspension noise

My 2003 mgtf Sprint has covered 19000 and has had a clunk from the front since well before MG went into receivership. It happens when moving off in the morning and sometimes when reversing. The garage, who supplied it to me new, said it was a loose bolt and tightened it but at the last service decided it needed "both front top arms and shafts" replacing at a cost of £567.78.
Can I do this myself and, if so, where can I buy the parts? Are there any on-line diagrams to help?

Thanks

Not too sure why I'm on here as "Bullwinkle"! I'm also in Sussex not USA. Aren't computers great?

If your car has the red MG calipers it could be the pads moving. Mine tends to do that occasionally.
