Man just got to love these drawn out problem explanations..... Check your ball joints.
just replaced both upper and lower ball joints because of the pop they were loose anyway though. Have tightened every bolt I could see. Have checked all steering linkage and suspension. I am a total lose. Very loud pop. Definitely driver's front area. You can feel it in the floorboard.
If the truck will make the noise sitting still, pop the hood, and have someone turn the steering wheel, while you go searching for the noise.
can't duplicate noise sitting still. Seems like is related to weight shifting while turning going down the road. Suspension and steering linkage are all tight. I tightened just about every bolt I could see.
