Wheni make a turn with any type of momentem my right front side make like a banging cracking noise I think it may be the tie rod or ball joint. It does the same on the other side when making opposite turn but not near as bad but my whole front end will kind of go down with the momentum from the turn what can I look for to fix this problem

Raise car, put on stands. Grasp tire and push/pull both horizontally and vertically, if any movement then possible wheel bearing, ball joint, tie rod, control arm bushing.

Check CV boots for any signs of leakage or cuts/rips in rubber boot.
