ON full lock to the right, It sounds from the N/S as though the CV joint is clucking but in 2WD hubs wont be locked so the drive shaft doesn't turn so!!! :lol: the noise can't be the CV :?:

After reading the workshop pdf about "Steering Stops" do they sound like a CV joint on it's way out

If none of the above any ideas what to starting checking :?:

many thanks......

Just grease all 4 steering stops and your problem should be solved.
You need to grease them say every 6 months or when you hear them clunk.
 
Yeah I would agree that it's your steering stops.

My front bump stops have been missing for at least 3 years and been through MOT's like that.
