Ball joint(s)
Shock(s)

Those are the first places I'd look. Ball joints are good to check on once in a while anyhow.

Also, make sure and check your stabilizer bar bushings, I just replaced ball joints in one of mine and there were no bushings left, so every time took off the bar would bang against the brackets.
