So the 100 started a nasty creaking sound in front end while turning under load or hitting bumps. Sounds like metal on metal creaking, not ticking or popping.

Jacked up front end, no noise while turning wheels off ground.

Checked all grommets on sway bar. Not great but Ok since last rebuild 50k ago.

Rack is also new within last 20k.

220k total miles.

Just did timing belt and tensioner for PMCS.
Now this a week after service.

Thoughts?
 
Diff bushings and/or bolts? After re-torquing everything when i installed a diff drop my front end did get quieter.
 
Ball joints
you guys have a good source for Ball joints? Best to go OEM?. I will go ahead and do all of them while in there - upper and lower - since they are originals.
