    Default !!!2 wheel bearings later..and the problem is still there..??

    hey guys i have a vr v6 commodore eecutive. when i bought it there was a knocking sound in the wheel whenever i turned right. i changed the wheel bearing and it was still there. i thought i got a faulty wheel bearing so i changed it to a newer 1 and the knocking is still there ....surely its not the wheel bearing still... any ideas of what it might be?? any help would be greatly appreciated as i am getting quiet angry with this continous problem..
    thanx guys

    Check to see if any of the rubber bushes at each end of the stabiliser links attached to the stabiliser bar are missing.

    Yup, +1 for sway bar link pin bushes. The get brittle and spit them after a while, especially older models which load up bad when the wheel is at full lock.
