Default Strange sound when turning

i have a 2005 supercharged monte ss, with 85000 miles on it, only had it a year, and the past month i have notice when ever i make hard/sharp right turns i hear a clicking sound (i can only hear it when my windows are down, so i know its coming from outside of the car, and sounds like from thefront) like some one is cracking their knuckles, But at the same time i started noticing when i accelerate or brake the car has a shake to it, so im thinking that the shake and the click are from the same thing any ideas?

and on a different problem, after my car sits for hours and i start it, it has a whinning sound for a few minutes (i guess untill it gets warmed up) and my past with having some old *** cars tells me its just a belt, but what im curious about, is the monte known for pullys losening up so the belts get lose, or is more likely the belt is just old and needs to be replaced?

You just hear the clicking, you don't feel it in the brake pedal and steering wheel? If you do it may be you intermediate steering shaft (http://www.naioa.com/v2/modules.php?...wtopic&t=10805) but it wouldn't cause the shaking.

Might be the CV joints or tie rods.
