Sounds like a bad spring seat. Does it also occasionally squeak when going over bumps?

Try putting a wrench on the strut gland nut and twist. If the nut twists easily, but doesn't loosen the nut, then it's the spring seat. Try the driver's side too for comparision's sake. I bet that one doesn't move.
