welcome to YT.

Is the sound coming from a specific side? a clunking noise usually indicates a bad front axle CV joint. Take a look under both front wheels, you might find a torn CV boot. The CV will start making noises as it loses it lubrication and road grime gets in the CV cage.

Unfornately not really a quick fix. take a look at the Factory service manual in my sig for more information on it. Hope this helps...

if its coming from the back it maybe the tailgate ummm not the hinges
but the folding arms that hold the tailgate level when you open the gate
they rattle pretty bad when you go around corners, i covered mine in some
foam and electrical tape where the arm itself folds in half.

ocdropzone is probably got the right noise and solution for ya tho

Got any more specifics on this rattle so it can be narrowed down a little bit.

are you running over little carz? (that'z a joke...don't flame me)

At full lock? or just around a corner.

There are steering stops front and rear on each side that you should put grease on first to see if it is that.

Does it clunk once around the corner or multiple times?
