Creaking noise

Hi, my 2012 Westy has developed a bit of a creaking noise. It happens when going slowly over bumps & also when steering or when turning the steering lock to lock when stationary. The sound is a sort of metallic creaking, any pointers as to where to start looking ? TIA

Rear suspension bushes at the hub? I've injected oil into one of mine as a temporary fix.

I just had this on my 2011 VSE, it turned out to be the lower suspension arm ball joint, passenger side.( lower comtrol arm, think its called) I changed all the arms both sides and ball joints and track rod control arm while it was on the ramp. Noise gone Thumbs Up 2015 4.4 AB
