I am noticing a hard dull knock (seems like it's on the passengers side) from under the car. Sounds like it could be anywhere from under the passengers seat to the back end. It is not consistent with a loose shock. Can't swear to it, but I think it may have gotten more frequent on a slow right turn. I have not yet had a chance to check it out, but the first thing that comes to my mind is torsion bar. Any thoughts?

I put the wheels on not long ago and torqued them, but being that they are the Cragars with elongated bolt holes I'll check them again tomorrow.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Sounds like wheel bearing or ball joints
Ding ding ding. We have a winner.

RF outer bearing was in pieces. Lucky I made it home. Strange part is I packed all the bearings when I did the brakes last Dec..
