Default creeking noise

Hey hows it going,

I was driving along and I hit a nice bump in the road, now when i turn to the left and the body weight gets shifted i get a creeking noise from the front passenger side. I am not sure if it is a A-arm or ball joint tie-rod? I have new shocks struts and springs with less than 5000 miles. Just not sure exactly what would be causing the noise thanks.

Is it a dry-socket kind of noise? If so, Go under there, poke a SMALL hole in the ball joint boot, and spray some WD40 in there thru the little red straw... Then go drive it and see if the noise is still there. If so, do the same with the tie rod end boot... retest.
