Hey guys I have a knock coming from the front right hand side of my 1991 mr2 the knock only gradually becomes louder as I drive. The knock also only occurs when turning to the left. Cheers for the info in advance

    Check your swaybar links.

    Yes, and also check underneath the swaybar to chassis brackets to see if there are no chassis cracks.

    BTW, I should have added that you need to actually remove the brackets to be sure.

    if its only started since the ball joints were done, then go looking there first
     
    possibilities (apart from ball joint related) ..
    strut to hub bolts losoe
    strut top bearing stuffed or 3 nuts loose
    damper coming loose inside strut housing or at strut top centre nut
    rack end or tie rod end, worn out
    rack loose on mounts
    tie bar bushes worn out or retaining nuts/bolts loose
    sway bar links worn out
    sway bar mounting cracked (usually you hear a clicking noise)
