strange noise when i turn
Ok so i found out last night after having a lower control arm bushing replaced that now when i take turns hard it sounds like my rear outside wheel to whichever way im turning is hitting something. It just makes a noise like " bum..bum..bum..bum" depending on how fast im going. Its not a clicking noise, and not like metal on metal, and its coming from the rear wheels. The car is lowered on nuespeed springs. Any ideas on what it could be?

No it is coming the front right actually. Sorry I did some more investigation today. I guess it is the cv axels, guessing i blew the boot. I was told if i do this myself the parts like 150 for a new axel which comes with the boot. So me and a friend are going to do this. Sound right?

yeah....thats how i felt....the noise was loud. Took a drive with a mechanic he was like holy shit. YEah.......so id check your lugs if you hear that. He said also sometimes people will tighten lugs to corroded metal, that metal will flake off a little, loosening the lugs which will slowly loosen more and more, resulting in this noise.
