Default clunking/knocking on front end

I have a 2005 Grand Cherokee Limited. For the past 2-3 weeks I've been hearing/feeling a "clunking" or "knocking" sound eminating from the front end. This only occurs when I'm driving at low speeds or sometimes turning. I have an extended warranty and took it to a Jeep dealership. According to them, they heard the noise, but can't find where it's coming from. They advised that they lubed all the right places and stated that this may eliminate the noise; however, they couldn't have been more wrong, I still hear the noise. What I have been noticing is that the noise only occurs when I drive around for a while... and it's getting real annoying. I'm an average everyday driver with 66k+ on the odometer. Can someone please provide me with some suggestions before my warranty expires?
