    Just realized the title says "Front Right"... DOH!
    Front that point, I'd look at a stabalizer link, mazda's are notorious for eating these up!
    I think I'm grabbing for straws at this point without more info though...

    How steep is your driveway? Any chance you're scraping?

    I tend to agree with Kevcol. Likely the stabilizer link. I had the same issue with the same symptoms on my old Protege a few years back and it was the stablizer link.

    My experience was my Probe GT (MX6), and my 03 Protege5 was ready to give some of them too.
    Don't rule out the axle, though you'd likely here "clicking" while turning if its on its way out...
