not on bumps.
seems to be when i turn to the right and coming from a standstill or very slowly
anyone see my bushing?
I don't think it's the bushing making the noise - bushing problems are usually a deeper thunk than what I heard on the video - but it does look like something I would inspect further. Most other suspension/steering noises are usually pretty low freq, too.

It doesn't sound like separated plies in the tire. Plus they tend to be in time with tire rotation.

If Trips' bearing theory isn't right, my next guess would be brakes.

Good luck.


Edit: It could be the spacers shifting ever so slightly. Use a torque wrench to tighten all lugs. If that doesn't work, try a little graphite where the spacers touch the wheel and hub.
Edit2: Graphite not meant to be a fix, just a troubleshooting aid. If the noise disappears, you have a problem with spacer/lugs/bolts/wheel.
