im not positive on this,but it kinda sounds like ball joints..

examine your suspension.try wiggling stuff around and if something moves,look into it.

Brake*

I'm guessing you have a bad bushing somewhere but i could be wrong. Take a look at your bushings. Jack the car up and check for play in the suspension.
