First place I'd look is your anti-roll bar and control arm bushes.  Then check all the joints and bushes in the steering.  Chances are something is worn.

Its a bar from hub to hub, runs from behind each hub mounting, as you look at the hub it will be in th left hand side of the assembly, and a mirror image on the other side. Its busheled and  curves foward before curving back towards the opposide side.
