slight creeking up front when turning?

On my 91 300E over the last month or so I have noticed that when I turn left at 10mph or more such as in a big turn lane deal, there is some sort of slight squeaking or creeking coming from the right front of the car sometimes..The sound I would liken to sqeeky brakes even though the brakes don't make this sound when used or ever.


Any thoughts??

Is this "ball joint deal" or "bushings" something that can go for a while without being "fixed?" I just got it back from the shop for head gasket, o2, and fan belt tensioner. Yeah everything broke all at once. Truely amazing.
