You would need to remove the transmission and the procedures are not easy for DIY. Unless you have a hoist, if not, it wuold be really difficult to handle this job.

Such noises are usually from dried out ball joints. Check the upper and lower arms joints and steering tie-rod rack ends etc for torn boots.
