1990 Nissan Maxima, i noticed that after changing the struts/springs on my car that when i make a hard right turn while accelerating the car makes a terrible grinding noise. I know this is a classic sign for a CV joint, but could it be anything else? It is definitely not tire rubbing, definitely metal sound. It doesnt seem to be getting worse. Thanks. ---

Yes, it could be something else. And probably is. CV joints usually make clicking or thumping sounds. Briing it back and have them take a second look. It might be as simple as a bent dust shield.
