Sounds like it could be ball joints going bad. Does it make a clunking sound when you turn the wheel when you are stopped? That would indicate bad ball joints. Just my two cents, don't hold me to it!

Before Hawkeye cranked my torsion bars I'd get a creaking noise from the right front on large low speed bumps. It was my torsion bar rubbing on a bracket that it passed through. Now with cranked bars I don't get the noise.

Not 100% sure this is the right way, but if you are parked and turn your wheel from all the way left to all the way right and you hear clunks, your ball joints are bad. I haven't had any problems with mine, but I think I have read on earlier posts about it.

Grab your front tire and shake it - if it isn't firm you could have bad front end parts. This is where that used car lot tire kicking thing comes from - kick rear tire instead of front and they'll play you for a sucker.
