    Check the wheel nuts are tight, also get under and check the suspension components - there are quite a few that will cause a noise when turning.

    If you have the solid rear end - not independant, then the problem will be worn panhard rod bushes - cost about $40 for the pair and very easy to instal. The panhard rod locates the back axle/diff from moving sideways. These bushes have a habit of failing.
