Yesterday around lunch driving back from a customers on the highway I hit a pothole doing about 50 -60 mph. It made a loud bang.
Drove home fine but then started hearing and feeling a clanking/thudding sound when turning sharp right at speed. When I turned corners going slow it was okay or only one in awhile hear / feel a clank/thud.
When I turn left I cannot replicate that sound.
I tried replicating it going fast up and down drive way no noise/feel.
Took tire off tire is fine.
Tie rod looks and feels fine.
CV joint has no play in it and feels good. Rotated the tire while jacked up and no noise could be replicated.
I had planned on replacing the LCA but not sure that is what it is.
Anytime I hear of a noise when turning I immediately think of CV joint but the boots are perfect and it feels solid.
Any thoughts? Suggestions?
Thanks in advance.
