I was leaving work this morning and went to grab a bite to eat and when i tuned left into the parking lot, i heard a loud pop sound from the driver side front end. so i turned right an nothing... so when i was leaving i turned left again an, pop... got home and i looked under it and did not find anything out of the norm? what do ya'll think it could be?

 

is it a 4 wheel drive? if so could have been a cv shaft. also check all your front end components for being loose

 

MIne did that for a while too, never could figure out what the hell it was, had it up on a lift and checked everything and all was good still handled right etc. but it went away after a few months

 

Yeah its 4wd and it is used A LOT lol, i wiggled every thing i could think of, and nothing was lose. first time it has ever done it. maybe it will go away after some time... at least i hope.

 

what truck do you have?

 

The pop is probably from turning all the way and touching the steering stops. When the wheels get turned at that sharp of a turning angle, the pressure/weight of the truck can almost snap it into the steering stop causing a clunk/pop sound.
I don't think it's something your gonna get rid of, but you can reduce the noise by applying some grease to the stop face. The grease will act as a cushion.

 

It is a 2006 mega cab 1500...

and Thanks dirtydog i will most def try the grease.

and also, how do you add a Sig... to your posts? i must be blind because i can not figure it out :-/

 

go to user cp at the top and on the left side of the screen it will say edit signature and type in your own and then click save. simple enough! good luck

 

Thanks! and i just went out to look at my front end again with my dad and its the center link bushing on the passenger side going bad. yay.

 

you have a SFA in the MC 1500?
