Clunking

[El_Callao]

I hear a clunking sound every time I turn the wheel of my 03 suburban 1500 2WD

Welcome to the forum from Virginia Need a little more info. Where is the clunk? When braking? When accelerating? Over bumps? Any recent service? Lug nuts tight?

No just when I’m turning the steering wheel.

Is the clunking in the front, or rear, or in the steering column?

Does it make a difference which way you turn or just either way you turn? Like @TollKeeper said, where do you hear it? Is it any worse if you are turning in over a tapered part of curb, like a driveway? Hitting bumps at same time? Feel it at all? You may have problems at the sway bar links: https://www.rockauto.com/en/moreinfo.php?pk=7219668&cc=1412198&pt=7580&jsn=925 or the sway bar frame mounts? Maybe the shock mounts? Maybe almost anything till we can get info from you about all the questions. Also, is it a constant, meaning, each and every single time you turn left or right, the noise is there, no matter what?

As recommended by @PNW VietVet inspect the sway bar links and sway bar bushings, and the shock mounts; those are probably the easiest to replace. It could also be the ISS (Intermediate Steering Shaft) as @TollKeeper was trying to determine, or a wheel bearing, or a ball joint. The possibilities are endless...

As the folks above have asked, please give us additional information, and we will work with you to narrow down the possible sources.

Likely either the steering wheel shaft/its bearing OR a Ball Joint.

Already change sway bar links and wheel bearings and shocks and also did the pitman and idler arm change

I only hear it when it turns but mostly from the left front and hitting bumps sometimes & yes it constant. Every time I turn but just the front left
