Default Axle Binding

Whenever I make a left turn in my k20a2 crx with drive shaft stage 0 axles I get a terrible vibration from the right front. The lower the front gets the worse it gets. Could this be axle binding? A bad bearing? When I jack the car up and check for looseness in the suspension I can't find any.

What does axle binding sound like? Anyone else with DSS 0's have binding problems? Thanks

What axles are you running? Do you still have binding problems?
