Default Nasty KNOCK!!

Hey guys well its only just come around but it freaks me out everytime i steer near full lock to the right..

when making a tight right turn, but not a complete lock, it makes this loud knock from the drivers side front.. i dont have a clue what it is but its nasty.

does anyone hav an idea what it might be? im planning on doing GoJeeps Steering box brace soon so i hope its not that trying to rip out of its mounts..

any help would be great.

Thanks
John

maybe the upper joint on panhard rod is loose, just needs to be tightened.

the joint at the bottom next to the spring is the panhard rod (track bar) It goes through the bracket and on top is a nut with a split pin through it take out the split pin and tighten the nut then reinsert the pin. hopefully noise gone.
