CV, wheel bearing or other nosie-how to diagnoise

I have a noise coming from the front of my 1991 9000CD when I turn the car. It is strongest when turning to the right, less when turning to the left and none when going straight. The frequency of the noise corresponds to axle rotation speed and is independent of whether or not the car is in gear. It is a low pitched, thump-like sound, not particularly loud. I recently had both front CV joints replaced (the boots had been broken) and I thought this would solve the noise problem. It helped by making it go away for about 1000 miles but it has returned, albeit less loud.
Any ideas how to isolate the cause to a component. I don't want to start replacing parts without knowing which part is causing the noise.
