    Several things - did you install yourself ? Or a mechanic ?

    Could be

    Cv joints binding
    Loose hub nuts
    Loose knuckle or tierod ends
    Even loose lugnuts

    The point is the problem is directly related to
    The install of driveshaft/s - so back track and make sure everything is tight and there is smooth movement in the geometry of the front suspension.

    hey mate thanks for that, the noise would only come when load would be placed on it. I have replaced the drivers side ball joint today as the rubber was split and the bolt part of it was turning and would not tighten up, I have re-installed the drivers side shaft. I will be putting it all back together tomorrow so if it does it again i will pm you.

    If the lower ball joint wasn't tight this will give issues - the knuckle will move
    About and stuff up your alignment too

    I would guess that should fix it so good luck let us know

    Where did you get the shafts from?
    They could be to long and binding when the suspension is compressing or turning will do it to
