Default Strut Bearings?

I've been noticing that when I hit something to really move the front suspension...that I get a deep creak out of the front. I played around with a driveway that had a bump when entering. I could get it to creak when hitting the bump straight on or diagonal...both sides did it, but passenger side more.

The strut seems to be doing its job...it still handles really well and, creaking aside, still takes bumps really well.

Looking at some exploded diagrams, I seem to think the strut bearing might be going out.

Thoughts?
