Quick question about a noise

Well, I have about 6000 miles on my truck. We are well into winter here in Alaska now so have had the truck in 4X4 quite a bit now. Yesterday, I was making a left hand turn from a stop into a parking lot from the turning lane. I was in 4WD and in addition to the normal little bit of wheel hop, I noticed what seemed to be some knocking coming from the front left corner. I tried to get it to do it again later in the day with no luck. I have also tried to get it to do it turning right, with no luck. Was going to call the dealer but thought I might get some insight here first!!

I wish it was dry pavement. It was snowpack and ice extremely slippery. If it were dry pavement, I'd totally understand.
