Hi guys I get this grinding-like noise only when turning slowly and sharply to the right, sometimes it does not do it but most of the times it does. I have already replaced the tie rods and sway bar links thinking it was that, but it didn't fix the problem. I'm leaning towards CV joints now but I see no visible damage to the boots or anything, they look fine. Follow the link below to hear the sound I recorded.

2 sec. of the noise didn't help.
Why are your replacing parts that you can look at or feel if bad? Oh well. Could be a normal metal to metal stop for the extreme of possible turning if you also have the slightest dip/bump will make a noise. If so it would look rubbed on and a spot of grease by hand stops that. You shouldn't turn to the very end and hold any vehicle there - back off just a bit.
You can't (well unless ending up on your roof is your thing) turn a car full swath unless at very low speeds such as parking.
CV joints do make usually "crackle" sounds when turning hard AND giving it some power at first - almost always but exceptions for anything?
