Check ball jts and tie-rod jts for looseness. Check anti-sway bar bushings, particularly where they tie to the lower arm for wear. They will cause noise, particularly when you hit a bump while turning. Check shocks for looseness at the upper mounting.

good luck

yeh, but the sound that it makes its like if it dint have bushings and evrything was loose, so its like a metal to metal type sound. like if i have the sway bars just dangling and when it hits a bump it clings and clangs.
