Probably something to do with the rack or power steering bump, unless its more of a clunk, then it could be a bad ball joint

It seems like it is coming from the drivers side front. Its not just one big clunk its multiple ticking sounds. It almost sounds like certain headers when you get that ping from the exhaust. I dont know if that helps but thank you.

mine made a clicking noise when making sharp turns, turned out to be the rack and pinion.

What other parts should I be concerned about if my pinion bearing went bad?
