Could be alot of things, ball joints, tire rod ends, control arm bushings, sway bar end links, etc..
Just take the wheel off with the car in the air and check for excessive play in all the joints. THe only way to learn is try it out and ask, also get yourself a haynes/chiltons manual, it'll help a whole lot.

If your going to spend the money on a manual, then just get the helm's. Probably the best invesment you can make.
