My first guess would be that the sway bar anchor bolts are gone and the sway bar is just flopping around. Very common problem with these cars. The bolt literally rusts off. Your car would "drift" on turns if so. The other possibility is the with the struts - but then they tend to creak.

A cheap replacement wheel bearing will do this or the hub to knuckle bolts loose, axle nut loose,.

yeah see in the other thread, all these suggestions started flying around, and it ended up being something entirely different, a mount I believe.
