I have a grinding noise when am full lock to the left or right, for example, if i was to do a 3-pointer the grinding would be audible when reversing back on full lock and the again when driving off under full lock.
Its a metal grinding noise like a bag of spanners going through a wood chipper, lots of crunching.
i think its the drive shaft on the right hand side but not sure, any ideas?

Is it a constant grind on full lock or a knocking?

hmmm not to sure on that one then dude. May be worth checking the CV joints etc although this usually is associated with a knocking noise. Sorry can't help much
