Creaking/clanking noise on hard turns

I recently noticed a strange noise when taking a hard corner (faster than I should be). the first time it happened I thought it was gravel in the road and my tire was "skipping" across it. seems to be getting worse, and it happens on left or right turns. sitting in the drivers seat it always sounds to me like it is coming from the passengers side front wheel area. although my buddy was riding with me and he says it should like it is coming from the rear on the left turns and the front on right turns. Also, you can feel a vibration through the floor.
checking the suspension components the only thing loose was the sway bar end links. I replaced all for but that didn't help with the noise. no play in the wheels so I don't think it is wheel bearings.
It sounds almost like an exaggerated strut mount noise, but I am not getting noise when going over bumps or turning the wheels back and forth. (usually you would hear a popping with a bad strut mount).
