Check your CV joints. See if the boots are busted.

My cv boots should be fine but I did just have a ton of alignment work done to the right side front wheel. Replaced lower control arm.

Cv joints for sure. Sometimes it is just cheaper to buy new axles. Around here I can get rebuilt axles w/ a lifetime warranty for pretty cheap.

well as far as I know the cv boots/joints are not refillable but have to be replaced entirely. Maybe I'm wrong but thats just what I thought

not trying to thread jack, but i get grinding noises from my driver side when i drive. it usually happens when i start to slow down. it is not a warped rotor. just replaced my old warped rotors with blanks about a month ago and i havnt braked hard since i got them. it feels like the axel is slipping in it's hole it is supposed to be in. it was also just replaced btw. probably going to take it back to the place i got it done at to get it looked at, but does anyone know what would be wrong with it?

I had the same problem but mine was even going straight when I punched it.. . it came out to be the U-Joint, Axle and bearings were loose. Have them checked out. It is like a clickin and/or rubbing sound that I could feel through the pedals.
