Front end steering noise-85 380SE

Last year had both upper control arms and stabilizer bushings replaced due to "groan" noise over bumps, driveways , etc. Also at 88K, previous owner has both lower balljoints replaced. Last year I replaced shocks and steering damper. Now I have noise when I turn inot my driveway or turn into parking place. Not loud but typical crunching groan. Could this be tie rods and center link? I have not checked yet but looking for some advice. I figure I can do tie rods and center link myself.

P.S. also when backing out of driveway and apply brakes I get a noise similar.
