I have the same noise comming in and out of driveways, over bumps.. Its
a creak, or groan and I have KONI shocks. I have also replaced every
bushing in the frontend. I also have the ECS camberplates.. But the
noise was there before camberplate install.

I dunno. Maybe we have a bum shock? Mine is comming from the driver
side.. Maybe a switch is in order to see if it moves with shock location...
