When I ride over a pot hole, the steering wheel shifts a bit and when I make a wide turn, I hear a knock. Im going to get new struts and shock absorbers but I not sure if I need anything esle?

Hi there,

The knock on turns may be a faulty CV joint.

So would I have to replace the joint or grease it up?

If it is the CV it will have to be replaced, it will be cheaper and quicker to get a change over drive shaft, best get a mechanic to roads test it with you to confirm the diagnosis.
