I'm having the same problem. Only when I turn right. Hopefully you thread will resolve my problem too.

Clicking while turning can also be a sign of a worn CV joint.

I'm in NY for the summer so can't do that till I'm back in FL.
Also it only happens when turning real hard or noticed it the most when doing donuts. Don't really want to do donuts at a meet haha.

Hmm how would I check that? I am lowered and I also put in a different diff so could that have worn them out?

If you are lowered an do not have driveshaft spacers then more likely than not it is a worn CV joint.

Hmm probably. I think I do notice some slight vibrations but not sure. Not really an acceleration vibration though seems more speed related or random really so might just be the rough roads or wheel balancing.
I have heard a lot that when pulling the axles out for the diff install they can get messed up from that and I am also lowered with eibach pro kit springs without spacers.
Pitted axle buckets will cause popping sounds as well as vibrations? Never heard much about them causing popping sounds. The sound is the same as the axle nut issue but just happens a few times in a row like something is flexing.
I have also heard the noise when reversing after being parked for a little while.

well id say if you were getting a "click" it woudl be the CV buckets/joints ... when my rear when, i drifted out of a lot onto a street and it started lightly clunking.

Have you recently changed suspension? Or something came loose? ... stuff in the trunk?

I've had the springs on for 10k miles or so now. I don't know if something came loose but nothing that I know of. Definitely not the sound of something in the trunk. That's a different sound since I have stuff there haha.
Yeah it is a clicking sound kinda. Best way to describe it would be a pop sound I think. My rear end is cryo'd 4.77 gears with like 15k or so on it. Never launched or anything so no worries with that.
