Check for worn out torsion bar end links, worn out lower control arm bushings, worn out intermediate shaft in the steering column, and the axle half shafts. Those are all parts that wear out on these cars and could possibly make some noise. Also did you change the bearings at the top of the struts? All things to consider.
