Yes replace the upper strut supports and the problem should go away. Make sure they dont forget the bearing that is on top of the strut,(some people lose it ) when they change the supports.
There was a TSB SU002–99 released:
Technical Service
BULLETIN
September 3, 1999
To eliminate a noise occurrence from the front suspension on washboard type road
surfaces, the suspension support has been changed.
Hope this helps
p.s. consider joining TS, there are many TSB's and other info that you will gain access to, along with a wealth of info.
