Ok its a little hard to get a video/sound of this but is there anything out of the ordinary that tends to go out causing creaks? Its in the front and I have no clue what it is, i replaced the struts because they were already bad looking. I thought it was a cv axle because the bearing kinda got pulled out ( noticed while doing struts). Could it be the engine mounts? Control arm bushings? I will try to get a sound clip soon.

I'll grease the bushings and check the a arm bushings as well, I just replaced the sway bar end links and bushings a year and a half ago.
will update with anything new. Thanks for the input.
No they are not. I bought them off Amazon and everything bolts up just fine, no issues but after cv axle and strut replacement I need to get an alignment. I just checked a arm bushings and they still look good. I didn't see any major damage/tears, I re greased the sway bar bushings as well. I will get an alignment tomorrow and see if the noise changes.
Ahhh no name struts huh.. hopefully they last a long while for you.. I'd be hesitant to install crap like that on such a crucial component of my car like the suspension..
Not much but the old ones were completely ruined, it still has a bad clunking. I'm hoping an alignment helps. It started a year ago and nothing I've done helped.
