Sounds like it may be a ball joint, its probably over due for a set anyway.

Front stabilzer bar bushings-front stabilzer bar end links check for slop-play VERY common problem. The end links hit the inner frame rails as the bar shifts up-down side to side.

I am changing my stabilizer end links and bushings tonight as a matter of fact
