300SD Suspension Noise

My '84 SD with 97k Alaskan miles makes a 'thuummp' at the front end as the front wheels extend (say, into a chuckhole or on the other side of a speed bump). Sounds like something loose, but cant find anything loose in the front end (neither did a suspension guy). Also, when backing up and turning, the front end groans a bit. Is there a prime culprit in the front end that would act this way, yet not show itself to be loose, when shaking it up and down while inspecting it?
