Clank sound on the rear passenger tire

Hey guys I'm hearing a clank type sound when I turn right or when the car is merging right. Can this be a cv joint or one of the control arms? Any insight would help thanks

Is the sound coming from the front or back?

Could be a broken sway bar link

Finally figured it out it was the heat shield that surrounds the exhaust. It was rubbing on the inside of the tire.
