Default metal on metal

So I had my axels changed, solved the noise for about a week.

Now when I take turns whether moderate or quick tight turns, I get a popping noise just like before. Its a double popping noise, frequently happens over bumps too. The right side is more louder than the left. Just last nite I thought Id try it more rigourously on the car, and I heard metal to metal grinding type noise.

The Volvo Delearship replaced the axels in my car with Napa aftermarket axels. Just in the past year I've had my (shock absorbers-not sure on this one but I think it was done), control arm bushings, engine mounts, struts, inner + outer tie rods done.

It also almost sounds like a huge rock just hit the lower fender portion of the car, like just behind the tire..
