marbles?

i have a new problem w/ my max... when i turn all the way to the left or right and drive... a noise taht sounds like marbles comes from my left wheel... any idea what it might be? Other than that noise it seems to ride fine... a little bit loose in the steering wheel... but it rides real smooth still. Any input on this? THanks

it sounds like a lot of marbles are bouncing around inside of the wheel well somewhere

It's not too expensive to replace - something like 100-150 to get it replaced. It's cheapest to just replace that whole half axle. Take off that wheel and look at the CV boot to see if it's torn. IDK about the marbles sound tho - a bad CV has more of a creaking or cracking sound...
