Left turn knock

I have a 99 4x4 PSD F350. When I turn to the left (hard) I get a front end knock.

I pulled out the axles both and the U-joints are ok. I think the four wheel drive is not fully disengaging. Any ideas???

Do you have manual hubs or auto hubs. I have manual hubs on my '04 and it knocks when the hubs are locked, in 2wd. Dealer says it's normal.

i think i have your same problem. It knocks once, not clicking, but one knock. Ive inspected my shocks, and the track bar and both seem to be ok. My guess is that the spring bushings are allowing the leaf to shift right and hit the frame/shackle while turning ( i had that problem on my 68 land rover).

I have auto/manual hubs. I have taken apart the hubs and cleaned and lubricated them.
