Creaking noises could be loose rivets in the crossmember/frame under engine.
While staionary, have someone turn steering wheel while you check it out.

Try the transmission crossmember

I re-torqued all of the bolts on the transmission crossmember and it fixed all of my popping and creaking.

Creaking

Check your leaf springs. Mine have plastic in between that help the springs slide, and a few pieces have fallen out on the right hand side - which makes the spring creak really bad unless I oil it.
