Have someone help you bounce your car. Maybe the springs unseated.

Make a couple tight left and right circles in the car slowly, and listen for wheel bearing squeaks.

if your going over bumps and hearing it, i doubt it would be a wheel bearing. though, creaking sounds would indicate a failed hub/bearing, it would occur when certian torque would be applied(acceleration, reverse), or on highway speeds where the bearings get pretty warm. i'm guessing this has to do with a spring or suspension part.

tie rod ends

balljoint

loose subframe bolt

mine was from a busted balljoint and loose subframe bolt, it was not moving by hand but you get a wrench on that thing and you'll know it's not torqued down.
i never found out why even after checking all the axle, axle nuts, brake, etc.

then i gotten myself a x brace=hammer on the nail
