I had the springs and shocks assemblies replaced at 150k when I also  
had all the suspension bushings replaced.
The noise had already occurred and I mentioned it to the indy that  
did the work.
Too bad they didn't recognize the symptom so that they could have  
done it when working on the area.

Thanks.
