Hi all I've been having a bit of a problem for a while now whenever I put the truck on full lock and go forward or backward there is a number of very large bangs!
I have tried....

Regressing the steering stops and the have very little wear,
Track rod end replaced
Anti roll bar bushes changed

Now I need more ideas please help

CV joints? My boots were split and I got this noise.

New boots and filled with grease, and all quiet

Cv joint or a (inner) tripod joint

Had that problem with mine when I bought it.
Turned out my relay rod had a paggered balljoint.
It was the nearside one on the rod to be specific which was part of the rod itself.

So do we think its relay rod as I think I may have done the cv boots as well

could it not be the stops? mine make a right racket when on full lock

I had the same problem.It was the relay rod bush.Replaced the steering relay arm.Sorted.
If you are going to replace the relay arm,you may as well look at the idler arm bush while you have your tools out.
