Default knock when turning

90 CRX DX

Knocking when I turn both ways. My roommate just had one axle replaced, but I don't know which. The car just got dumped on me and have no contact to them.

It knocks louder when turning right. Driver side axle?

no jumping.

only knocks in turns when the gas is being applied.

when going straight it's pretty loud like bad bearings.

Roll down the windows and go to a parking lot at night and you'll figure out which one is knocking.

X2... either one or both of the axles are bad...The parking lot idea isnt a bad idea either... just to be sure which one it is.
Good luck!

You should check out your wheel bearings then... let us know what you find!
Good luck!

Sounds like you need to check out the axles and the wheel bearings. Let us know when you find out.

is there a chance that this can lead to a further devastating problem? or is it just an annoyance?

I have a knocking sound whenever I make a left turn. I've replaced everything (bearings, axles, upper/lower ball joints, tie rods, rack end bushing) and it's still there. I'm thinking it might be a motor mount or exhaust moving around.
