Evo 8 creaking noise on steering wheel turn

Hey guys, once again coming back to the forms for help. My evo has been making a creaking sound on turns. Slow turns so i suspected the cv joints. But now its even starting to creak and make noise when i am stationary and turn my wheel. Could it be my ball joints? Im looking for play in both and im not feeling an mm of movement. Both boots are pretty sealed aswell no grease on the outsides. I honestly dont want to remove the cv axles until i know its them. Any thoughts?

I would put my money on the strut top bearings being the issue.

I've had that creak on the left hand side and changed to coil overs and still got the creak so I've given up worrying about it
