1991 Oldsmobile 88 Royale loud clunk when turning??

My 1991 Oldsmobile 88 Royale has a loud clunk in the front drivers side when I turn left or right. This only happens when I'm making a very slow turn or sitting still and turn the wheel. It occasionally pulls very hard to the left, but not always. I jacked it up and checked the Ball Joint & Tie Rods, They're dry but tight. I did replace the stabilizer bar a couple years ago but not the bushings. Could someone narrow this down for me????

Ball joint, tie rod end or upper strut bearing. CV joints? Pulling to the left may be an alignment problem with front or rear tires. Get a four wheel alignment.

Catastrophic electrical problems

I'd check the terminal connections and twist them a little to see if they're loose or corroded.
Then follow the wires and check all other connections from the battery.
Can you jump start it?
If not it could be the solenoid or something else!
I once had this problem and finally discovered it was a melted connector under the dash on the drivers side right below the ignition.
I hope this was helpful!
Good Luck!
