Default Knocking

New guy here with a question. I have a 2000 4x4 extended cab that makes a knocking noise on left turns, havent really noticed on right turns. I recently took it to play around in the mud and thats when I first noticed it. My 4x4 works fine, and it only does it coming out of a complete stop. Thanks for the help.

Something broke loose and I'm guessing it is something on the driver side linkage. Could be a tie rod end, control arm, sway bar link, but I can't really tell ya man. If I were you though I would heavily inspect something in the driveline on the driver's side because you mentioned mudding. Mudding is fun but at the same time does absolutely nothing but **** up your truck.

BulletuH, I was thinking the same thing but nothing is impaired while driving, it only happens at a dead stop and I turn to the left. I think I need to turn truck on and get under it and turn wheel.
