Could be a couple things. Probably need new sway bar bushings or end links.

But could be ball joints or shocks without driving myself hard to tell. But if you haven't done them recently I would start with the cheapest fixes (bushings) and work your way up.

If it's all original it probably could all use work. It isn't far from needing parts anyway.

Hi from Mexico. I'm the owner of a 2008 Aspen, 2wd, 5.7 hemi. Very reliable vehicle, but in 2020 I had the same problems with grinding squeaking sound in the front of the vehicle, passenger side. I took the vehicle to a suspenssion specialized shop, and they fixed. The problem with the noise was coming from the lower arm joint *****, they were about to come apart. This is a dangerous situation and lead to a big accident. They recommended additionally to replace the upper joint ***** and direction controll arm joint *****, so I did change them as well and alligned the front end as well . After the replacement of all components (5hrs work time) the noise dissapeared, the vehicle went back to normal and its driving improved significantly.

Note that, the upper, lower and controll arm joint ***** were the original components from factory, my milage today (January 2021) is 99,500 miles. So if you are arround that 90,000 miles and never have changed those joint *****, you may want to have them inspected and replace them if need. I hope this helps some of you guys.
