knocking noise more than likely worn drop links.

wobbling could be one of a number of things

1 worn bottom arm suspension bush's / ball joint

2 worn track rod ends

3 warped disc's

4 worn suspension top bush's

more than likely bottom arms that have worn bush's so giving play which will cause a wobble as would the track rod ends, both which could cause the tracking to be affected.

if driveshaft is grinding on full lock, could be rubbing on something or cv joint is worn.few ideas for you as hard to explain via computer

just
