Hey all, I recently picked my Legnum off a mate of mine, needs a fair bit of work but was an awesome price so I can't really complain.. Anyway, it's unregistered so I've only driven it around the yard so far but the thing iv'e noticed is when I turn the wheel full lock both ways somewhere along the line while I'm turning there's a massive bang and shudder and it feels like the whole front end jumps a little bit. Now I'm pretty sure the drive-shafts are shot and that is what's causing it but I was just wanting to post on here to see if any of you guys had had any similar issues..
It's going to the mechanic next week to be officially diagnosed as well as a few other things such as the tappets and slipping clutch.

LCAs? or with a bang like that could your springs be binding or something?

Yeah possibilty it could be LCA's, I've got Tein Coil-overs that aren't that old so I doubt it's that. It's ridiculously loud whatever it is

Could be LCAs, CV joints, shocks, springs or engine mounts etc
