Knocking On Steering Wheel

Hey Guys
I seem to have a loud clunking noise when on full lock driving slow. Say if I reverese it will do a loud clunk and it will be fine again. Doesnt do it when driving or turning corners normally. Only when driving slow as in parking etc.
I have also noticed if I turn the steering wheel from left to right, theres seems to be a tiny bit of play in it.
Im hoping its not the steering rack. I have locked under the bonnet and under the car. Nothing seems to be leaking.
Thanks for any help.
Almost forgot its a 96 2.9 12V

Hi there
Thanks for the reply. Im hearing the knock maybe on the steering itself or maybe the front left. Bit hard to tell. So would that still be the read C V joint?

Best to check the usual suspects for wear,
Steering track rod ends,
Lower wishbone bushes and ball joints
Is there free play in the steering wheel in the straight
ahead position ( engine off ) ?
