When I turn a corner my explorer jerks and clunks and also makes a loud grinding or rubbing noise.
Although it may sound like it is the front, a rubbing noise can be caused by problems in the rearend/ differential.
Does your explorer have 4x4?
Sounds like you have either ball joint issues, or problems with the CV joints. The other possibility is a problem in the transfer case causing the front axle to bind. You can physically look at the CV joint boots to see if they are torn open and many times you can grab onto the axle and give it a good tug to see if it will move..it should not.
We can't guess for you
The bottom ball joints usually go on those vehicles
Can't the shop that did the work tell you why?
Your not replacing worn parts obviously
Any experienced person to road test & inspect
under it, can resolve that problem

Not sure but with my experience with mine, I would guess that it could be the bearings. Is the noises coming from the front end or theback?
I'm not a mechanic, but It could also be the CV joint. As a side note I had a similar issue with my 2000 Explorer. All I was ever told was that it was bushings in the suspension that were making the noise.
