My truck also makes a popping noise. It is the rear springs and there is a TSB.

I think he meant clunk . Grab the bottom of the steering column under the brake booster where the intermediate shaft connects to it. See if it moves up and down and or sideways at all. Also check the intermediate shaft for play where the slip joint is.
