Get new sway bar bushing & look into replacing your endlinks.

They are attached on each side of the sway bar. These bolt to you suspension components while the bushings sit on the frame. There's a few aftermarket ones, Moog is likely the better choice & OEM is there is you want to pay for it. I just ordered a set of Toyota ones...
