Default 2005 lr3 turning noise

Hello!
I own a 2005 lr3 that shifts beautifully. However, when I turn in either direction from a stop the truck will make a grinding/ cavatation noise. This does not happen all of the time and only when starting to turn from a complete stop. If turning while already rolling there is never any noise.
Any thoughts on what this may be?

Where is the noise coming from?
Inside or under the hood? Front or back?

Default 2005 LR3 Intermittent Turning noise

The noise (cavitation/vibration) is coming from the same side as the vehicle is turning. It is not under the hood, but rather from outside the vehicle on the turning side. The noise does not happen all of the time, and when it does, it is only when getting going from a dead stop and turning; such as when making a turn from a stop sign.
Thank you for the response and any insight or information is appreciated.

Sounds like its the tires then, sorry but this is very hard to figure out without being there.
Rotate the tires front to back, see if the noise follows.
