Clunking

I've seen a couple threads like these in the past, but can't find them now.

I get a nice little clunking sound when i go around corners coming from whatever side I'm turning into. But it only seems to happen when going around corners at intersections with deeper valley gutters.

To explain a lil further, I can take dips head on with no clunking, but if try to turn and take a dip or incline, my poor car sounds like someone just took a hammer to the hood.
