Trying to fix a "creek" noise without actually hearing it in person is next to impossible.
But I'll take a wild stab at it.
Check your front lower control arm bolts for being loose.

I have a 2006 suv. I am noticing a flex, creek, loose chain noise at speeds under 10 mph. It sounds like it is coming from the l rear tire area. I was thinking it was from the release of brake pressure. It also sounds like a loose shield. I can reproduce the noise by lightly accelerating from a stop with a slight turn of the wheel. I crawled under and all shields appeared to be tight. I brought the H2 into the dealer and they stated "Operating per design". This is driving me nuts. You can hear it over the radio. I know there is something wrong, I have been told by bystanders that something must be loose. I am bringing the H2 back in for service this afternoon. Any info on what I should tell them to check?

I testdrove a new 2005 SUT in Denver six weeks ago, and it sounded really "lazy" over bumps. It had that weird little squeeking noice over every bump...

I know from past experience that catalytic converters will rattle sometimes. Do you have an aftermarket exhaust? Maybe it's just tweaked enough to vibrate on something.
I munched mine on a rock in Moab, and now it vibrates against the bottom of the bumper. Drives me nuts!

Mine made that loose chain/ball-bearings-in-the-muffler noise. It was the heat shield on the muffler. The dealer installed a big clamp around it and it stopped.
Front end its most likely the skid plate. If not try the crossmember bolts, then the lower a-arm bolts.
