It is only happening when I make a left hand turn. Sounds like a rubbing noise. It happens everytime I turn left though. Anyone have any ideas? Is the rearend going out?

Might be the left hand side half-shaft bearing, but i would be tempted to jack it up safely and remove the wheel just to check its not the caliper or something in that region.
Are you running very wide rims or wide tyres?

its not the calipers I know that for a fact. I am running 03 cobra rims. 17x9 rims with 275/40x17 tires.

In that case its unlikely to be wheels and rims, still worth jacking it up and seeing if there's any play in that side.
