Default knocking sound when taking hard right turn.. please help

I've had my 96 honda accord ex for about three years now. I've always noticed a faint popping sound when taking a hard right turn, in the front right part of the car. Lately its been getting louder. Only hear it when I hit a pothole, big bump or am taking a hard right turn. Any ideas on what it could be? CV? Ball joint? control arm? I've replaced a lot of parts on it lately and I want to get this fixed before it breaks down. Please help!!!

You really gotta get under there and look for yourself at what's going on or you gotta take a lot of good detailed pics and/or a video and let us see/hear for ourselves. If you've replaced a lot of parts then say what you've replaced exactly so people have a better idea.

Usually the noise of a bad axle is emitted from the opposite side from your turn.
Turn left makes noise, it's the right axle.
Turn right makes noise, its the left axle.
Outer CV usually clicks, inner plunger tripod usually clunks.
