Default funny noise when using full lock??????

(97 STI 3 ) When i put my stearing lock on full, a nasty clunk can be heard espeicaly when reversing. It sounds like a ping bong ball been twatted of my bonnet!!!

Ive had the cambers / tracking done and replaced my front anti roll bar & bushes to no avail. Ive checked the wish bones & suspention and cant find any play their neither ?

Just wondering if this is comon or normal for scoobies to do this???

Does it make the noise when stationary or ONLY when moving?
