85gle na +200k miles

I have a strange thumping noise under drivers side of car. More noticable when turning right.

I have, in past, replaced almost everything under the car. Ball joints, tie rods, steering gear, shocks, bushing, exhaust, etc.

It sounds like exhaust pipe banging,or should I say vibrating under load, but I've checked that also. I'm wondering whether this could be a sign of deteriorating motor mounts?

I've looked at one side, and it looks like it should be replaced soon. I can't see the drivers side mount because of a/c compressor.

I'll have it up tonight looking again, just wondering what it could be, from those who have been there before.

thanks.
