Clunk in front when turning right ... none when turning left ...where should I look? 900

I thought brakes or a warped rotor, but I checked the pads about two months ago and they had lots of material on them. Like new.

The car has been sitting for a couple of weeks. My son came home from band camp (it's his car now). He told me about the noise (good kid). I took it out to drive. The clunk only comes up when you favor the left side (turning right) or lean to the right (such as changing lanes). Car has 350k miles. I am going to jack up the front wheels (independently) and check for play on each side. The clunk changes 'in tempo' with speed ... slows down when car slows down.

I know you are all enjoying your Sunday, just wondering if anyone has had this problem before and where they might suggest I begin.

1) warped rotors .... would it stop when I brake?
2) cone bushing worn ... been a long time since I replaced these.
3) bad wheel bearing ... originals ... never opened.
4) strut mount bushing ... would a failure cause this?
