Whenever i make a turn, especially over uneven road i hear some kind of knock noise coming from the truck, sounds like its coming from the front end. I bought the truck in dec "07 and since than i have only gone 3K miles and have replaced two ball joints (both lower i believe), replaced the shocks and just had it recently inspected. Also and this part is very odd to me, the problem isn't nearly as bad when the roads are dry as it is much worse when its raining or the roads are just wet. Any ideas what else i can do? I dont want to be driving it if its dangerous, thanks.

Might want to have the upper control arm bushings looked at. Has the entire front end been inspected before? Could be bad upper ball joints as well, check the idler arm too
