funny noises up front

whenever I go out and do donuts in an uneven dirt field, or even just turning going about 10mph on a bumpy road, i hear a squeaky noise up front. kinda like a ball joint. it only does it when in wheeling. I've replaced a bad ball joint already, that helped some, but its still there. A little embarassing because everyone stares at you. i think its something to do with suspension. it could be normal too. anyone else have this problem with their 2nd gen 4x4?

Take the midget off the front bumper when wheeling!!!!




























Just a quick quess, but I think it could easily be the control arm bushings...

If it only happens when you have the wheels turned all the way it's the steering stops. You can try to grease them but that rarely works.
