Worn out knukle bearings is my guess, they are on the top and bottom of the knuckle.

You should check the wheel bearings before you dig into it all the way.
Just jack up the front of the car and grab the top of the tire and push and pull on it and see if there's any slop side to side.  If so your wheel bearings may need a lookin at.

The next option is a bent front axle housing, but I think you would have figured that part out already.
