Weird noise in Nubira when driven up hills, over uneven road

I have a 1999 Nubira thats been pretty dependable, but the front end rattles like crazy when I drive uphill, or over uneven pavement. ( it sounds like part of the engine is going to fall off.) I also hear what sounds like grinding when I make a hard right or left turn. Any help will be greatly appreciated. ?????

sounds like a cv joint or wheel ball bearing, it could be the exhaust manifold bracket that could be vibrating. Front shocks/ stabiizer bar? grinding in turns could be power steering pump, is it low? or is the belt & etc. tight.

it could be control arm bushings... the nubira is known to distroy those things a bit too often, check to see if the rubber finally gave away.

is it just the noise or is your steering wheel harder to turn? either way i would check the power steering fluid. its probably low enough to start making sounds but not low enough to cause the physical effect yet.
