I had a similiar problem on my 97 accord. WHen I turned all the way to the left, my car made a knocking sound. But I'm pretty sure, that I tore the boot, and that had to be replaced.
Another time, my ball joint went bad at 150k, and that made a squeaking noise when the cars suspension went over rough roads, bumps, etc.
My knowledge on cars isn't too great, but I hope that helps.
edit- also, I had warped rotors as well on my accord, and that caused the steering wheel to vibrate violently when braking on the freeway or slowing quickly.
It was awhile ago, but I want to say the boot and bearing were both really expensive to fix, around a grand or so.
Also, FYI, I saw a cd in the 9.99 computer games section at target that was like "auto mechanic" or something. You tell it whats wrong and its supposed to diagnose the issue. I remember it had a BUNCH of Toyota models listed, I know 4runner was, not sure about highlander, but it covers 90-2008 and comes with an upgrade once 09-10 models come out.
