    Default weird "thudding" while going around turn at mmoderate speed

    lately i have been noticing when going around long turns i hear what can best be desciped as a helicopter noise. what causes this? I have a feeling my front wheel bearings are on their way out. car just hit 126k today.

    If so, then it's likely the ball joints on the control arms

    If not, then it may be a couple a things...loose lugs, tires, bearings, dead cat stuck under the car.
