I just had that issue too with 52K miles.

Started with replacing tie rods (inner and outer) but noise still there. Then drop links and sway bar bushings, did not solve the issue.
and finally struts and control arms (while I'm there) and solved the issue.
I agreed with MConte05 about the damper/strut because when I removed mine, they were very soft and easy to compress.

If you change the strut, change your upper mount. They updated the upper mount to 997 part number and the new part has larger rubber bushing.
