Front passenger side suspension creak?

I noticed a slight creaking noise while going over bumps and turning. I got out of the car and bounced all four corners of the car and it's definitly isolated to the passenger front wheel well. Anyone have any experience with this? best guess what it could be?

I had a creak coming from the plastic airmatic sensor arm articulating with the metal ball it attaches with...plastic to metal. Shot some wd40 in the joint...perfect.

This is the same arm that would be replaced it you used links to lower your car.
