Unhappy Knocking sound when turning/ ASR Turning off

Hi I had my 99' Z28 for years now (we bought it new) and I've been experiencing some problems for a while now. When I turn corners (especially long wide ones) I hear and feel a knocking sound. It's louder when turning right then left. My ASR also randomly turns off, resulting in a higher/ jumpy idle for some reason. Someone told me I needed a Diff. overhaul so I bought new gears and a ring & pinion kit, but when my buddy opened up the housing he said the gears looked completely fine, No missing teeth, no shavings in the fluid. I don't know what it could be.. Maybe shocks are blown/LSD controller is broken? I'm about ready to trade my muscle car in for an integra or somethin if I can't figure out what's wrong with it. I'd take it to a shop but, I just can't afford to spend 1-200$ everytime I need to know what's wrong with my car. Please help me? Much appreciated,
Jonathan

DON'T DO THAT!!!
You'd have to be crazy to do that

Can you feel the knocking in your steering wheel at all?
