alright well at the last autox i noticed after a run or 2 that when i turned real hard to the right it would make a scrapping metal on metal sound. only happens when turning right and only happens w hard turning. rotors are new as are pads and problem persist. check all my bushings underneath and everything LOOKS ok. any ideas? wheel bearing? other issues?

LCA bushing is probably bad

how would i check if the lca bushing was bad? and i did the wheel bearing check w the side to side n up n down play and it has none not to mention doesnt have the typical bearing noise.

go under the car and look for tears on the lca bushings... the lower/inner bushing on the lca is prone to blowout...as well is the compression rod bushing

If they're blown, energy suspension front end bushing set is the most economical poly bushing set

There are two lower control arms: transverse link and the compression arm:

Look for this...odds are it's the inner translink bushing, as the compression bushing tears, but doesn't make contact with metal on turns, the translink on a hard turn will be forced forward or aft due to the compression arms articulation and influence, braking loads, will slide it fore and aft.

Look for this:
