93 Mitsubishi eclipse creaking noise Sign In

it comes and goes, sometimes i can drive around and go over bumps and whatever else and it makes no noise, other times all i have to do is turn my steering wheel, or lean on the front of my car and it creaks. my dad said he thought it was the strut. do i just need to replace it? also before i got the car the front bumper was broken in two, so not sure what kind of damage it took but the guy who had it before me took absolutly no care of it. any ideas?

ok, so i got new struts, had them put on and once they were done i pushed on my front end and it creaked just like before, the guys were nice enough to real quick put it up on a lift and look at it, they said it was my lower controle arm bushings, and on a side note that my axle needed replaced pretty soon and that my wheel bearings were on their way to needing to be replaced, but i had time. so i replaced the axle and got rid of a clicking noise, and replaced the bushings, but the creak is still there, what else could be making noise? thanks in advance.
