Grinding and Clunking

Hi, I've got a few observations to share to help me diagnose what needs to be replaced.
Please let me know what you think?

Intermittent grinding sound
- Location: rear passenger side when turning left.
- Present when braking
- Wheel has play at 12:00 & 6:00

Loud HEAVY CLUNK sound
- Location: both sides/center when going over bumps/cracks
- Sounds heavy like rear end

Metal on metal sound
Location: both sides/center when going over bumps/cracks
- High pitched sound like 2 crowbars hitting each other

Re: Grinding and Clunking

Potentially a wheel bearing in the right rear. And then something with the suspension in the rear. You should be able to figure it out by prying/moving the rear suspension.
