Default Knocking on lock (reversing)

I have noticed a knocking noise and wobble when reversing on full left lock, just from the front left wheel. Going forward there is no noise or obvious problem.

Car is 2010 WRXS so wouldn't expect anything to have failed although wheel was curbed mildly a while back. Tracking and everything is spot on.

Just had the same problem with my legacy, sounds like the driveshaft. Reach under the front and grab the driveshafts to see if there is any play in it
