Default 02 Blazer 2wd front end creak

I have a creaking noise in my front end. I replaced the centerlink, both tie rods and assemblys, steering gearbox, idler arm, both upper ball joints and lower ball joints a few months ago. Shocks and sway bar links are newer also. The noise doesnt seem to be coming from the lowers but is isolated to the left side. I think the pitman arm portion of the centerlink may need to be greased but ive never heard of one making a sound like this?

Diagnose by climbing under the front end and have gurl friend bounce on the front bumper. Then have gurl friend turn steering full right to full left. If she complains that it is hard to turn tell her to start the engine this will also determine if she is mad at you.
