Default Clunking/Grinding while turning right.

So I have had this problem for a while and it's upsetting me.

Every time I make a right turn and apply any amount of throttle/torque load, something is making some bad noises. It's a clunking/grinding (as though the axle were slipping..?) noise, and it also happens sometimes when I accelerate hard in a straight line.

Now I figured it was my pass. side axle, which was crap to begin with. I replaced that just a few days ago, and although the problem has lessened, it's still there.

Can someone offer some insight into my lil problem, cuase I hate having stupid things wrong with my Lude.

If it happens when you're turning right, most of the time it's
gonna be the drivers side axle.
