Default Sway. vibration and creak

I am having a problem with sway in my 2000 blazer. [] I feel as if I am rocking back and forth sideways the whole time I am driving down the road. Also, the front end seems to have a lot of vibration in it. I just had the tires balance and rotated recently. One last thing, when I park with my nose down or hit a large bump or potholewith just my right front tire, I get a creaking noise. Ijust replaced the shocks in September of last year. Itfeels as if Ihave been beaten when I get out of my car.[&o] Can anyone help me diagnose my problems please?

The first thing to check is the front swaybar end links. They have small rubber parts that if worn out will not let the anti-sway bar function properly...in the photo you will see the rubber bushings that are needed. These are usually replaced with polyurethane versions for better results...
