I had some time to look into this noise some more. I removed the sway bar bushing and the noise didn't change. I noticed the noise to be coming higher up, so I pulled the wheel and started looking at all the bushings and connections. I took a floor jack and placed it under the spring bucket and compressed the suspension and located the noise at the top of the shock. Not at the mount, but on the shock itself, where the shaft enters the shock. I tried spraying it with white lithium grease and compressed it a couple time to work it over the shock shaft and it didn't help. I think it is internal to the shock. Most likely I will have to replace it.
