Hope your not putting it in 4wd on tarmac????

clonking is usually worn CV joints, grinding....wheel catching on full lock?

..might be hub problems, do you have any 4x4? or is it just jumping out on full lock?

because doin so causes what is known as axle wrap, basically when i 4wd and when turning, all four wheels are trying to turnat different speeds, as there is no central diff, it basically has to drag a wheel round = lots of stress on cv joints and shafts!

lots of info and technical stuff explained HERE!
