Vibration!!!

Hey guys hoping you can help me, everytime I make a turn the car vibrates like if is rubbing on something and at times it makes a clicking noise like if it was an axle... I checked the axles they're fine! Any ideas what this issue could be?

I was getting a thumping sound when I turned right, I found this the other day. Looks like I'm getting new tires and a alignment.

Its not the CV joints. I have new DSS Stage 5 axles and I have that sound also.

When you say vibration, do you mean the car feels like its "hopping" the rear around the corner?

I was thinking wheel bearing myself... If it makes the noise when turning left only, you may need a wheel bearing on the right front. How many miles on your car?

36000 thousand miles, and the rear does not act like is hopping, it just vibrates like if something was rubbing!

36K would be kind of low for a wheel bearing to go, but it could happen. Why don't you take it somewhere and have them look at it. It's a little hard for us to diagnose what the problem is over the computer.
