A few months ago I started to hear a creaking noise when going slow and turning, my driver control arm ended up seperating. I replaced the arm and the axle and it's been perfect until a few days ago I heard the creaking noise again from the same side. Not wanting a repeat I parked and jacked up my car and checked the control arm if the bolt was loose. It's on tight and everything looks okay.

Anything else this noise could be from? I tried driving it around the block a few times and didn't hear any noise but know I 100% heard it a few days ago
 
ball joints do that, nothing you can see per se, need to have someone turn the wheel lock to lock with the car on the ground while you listen at the area for sounds
