I will give that a try. The bearing also occurred to me. I mentioned it to someone I know and he said a bearing would probably make noise all the time, not just when making a turn.
But I will try pushing and pulling on the wheel and see if I can get it to clunk.

Is Beck-Arnley a good brand for wheel bearings? What parts do I need, I see "inner" and "outer" bearings, and a seal. I'd order the inner and outer bearings, I assume I need a seal, too? Anything else?
