yeah it would make a noise, but turning can accentuate the noise (with a bad wheel bearing). but i doubt thats your problem.
I assume the noise is comming from the front, is that right?
is your car "slammed"? camber kit? whats your setup?
chech all of your bushings up front, dont forget to check the sway bar bushings.

skunk2 coilovers/struts skunk2 UCA camber kit not slammed and yes its coming from the front it feels like the wheel is gonna come off
Check your ball joints.
Camber kits can hit part of the frame if the car is low enough, but you would notice this because it would feel like bottoming out.

oh yeah and the noise was happening before i put in the new axles.i had vibration while driving straight and clunking when i made hard turns.the new axles eliminated the vibration but i still get the clunking noise when i make hard turns
Again, I'd go over the bushings, steering rack, stabilizer bar bushings, bar end links, wheel bearings. Could be something you just overlooked after the install. Tends to be something really dumb in my cases. lol

ye im gonna go over all that stuff tomorrow once i figure out what's goin on with my turn signals anybody know what would cause turn signals from signalling.like the lights work and everything just won't signal??
Mine was just the fuse. I borrowed the high beam fuse to replace it, and haven't had an issue yet. My markes lit up, my hazards worked, but I had now individual signals.
If its not just the fuse, check the relay on it. The hazard relay should be the same, so just swap them around as a test.
