Easy check, hit your sway bar bushing with some thick grease from a grease gun.
You have like 30-40k miles right? Sounds too low for ball joints to fall, unless you got a defective one. Probably something rubber that failing from age instead of miles.
note: did you torque the brace to strut bolts as well, or just brace to center? mine was loose on the strut dome end when I caught it.

I had one of these noises too and it was loose swaybar endlinks... Check those.
