Seems like this started after having it to the shop to get the front drive shaft removed..the noise could have been there before but nearly as bad..I could be mistaken too I really don't know

My guess would be you are hearing the control arm mount flexing due to the lack of metal around it.

That needs welding up ASAP, if the arm comes off it will end badly for someone.
