Default Grinding/clunking noises while making right turns - 96 hatch

Back in the past, I had a similar problem where my rear trailing arms would clunk when I make left/right turns. I found out that my RTA bushings were shot and I replaced them with brand new OEM ones. Its been 4 months now and similar grinding noises occur when I make right turns only. The sound is coming from my rear passenger side. This only occurs within the first 2-3 right turns I make while driving, other than that it goes away until my next drive. What are the possibilities? My car is a 96 hatch by the way. Thanks

Matter of fact, it also clunks when the car jerks while shifting..coming from the rear.

I recently changed them 4 months ago with brand new OEM ones..Are there any other possibilities? I will have to take a look when I have time. Thanks

Did you change all the bushings?
You said you replaced the trailing arm bushings with new OEM. Did you clock them right?
