'96 JGC Limited "knocking sound" when turning

[Skavball24]

Just as of yesterday, whenever I make a normal 90 degree turn, a loud "knocking" noise comes from under me. I'm not proficient in vehicles/repair, but it seems pretty obvious that something with the front axle or whatever smaller pieces connect to the wheels. Any help with probable specifics and potential cost would be great, as I will be bringing it in to a shop later this week. Thanks!!!!

Sounds like a bad CV or UV Joint/axleshaft.

If you have quadra-trac, it's prolly a bad cv-joint. If you have Select-Trac, it's prolly a bad uv-joint. I learned that the unfortunately expensive way...
