bushes/balljoints/ driveshaft(if 4x4)/ calipers...

All in AceAnswers, but my first port of call would be antirollbar bushes, then bottom balljoints.

What type of noise - squeak/grind/thump,
all the time or on full lock only?
With or without the engine running?
You may get more vision of your question if you post it on the new BoK

all the time without and with the engine running only a 2wd and it creaks and squeaks

Probably just antirollbar bushes, although it's sensible to put a shot of grease in all the grease points (you'll have to purchase and install a nipple/ zerk in each); all the info is in Ace Answers.
