hey all, i have an 04 4x4 hemi. so i just got done with putting a new wheel bearing in the front right because it was shot due to a bad alignment that i finally got sick of and had fixed. the other day i had my wheel at full lock to the right while turning and when i straightened out it kinda made a click/pop noise. it wasnt terribly loud but loud enough to hear and i felt it a tiny bit as well. not too mechanically inclined but it kinda sounded like a ball joint or tie rod maybe. its done it three times in about a week/week and a half and they all sound the same. just looking for some insight, im gonna have my dad take a listen/look later this week. thanks in advance.

 

if it was a tie rod coming loose your wheel would have likely folded in... get under there and look for stuff that's broken....

My bet is an end link on your sway/stabilizer bar....

 

Don't want to worry you but I had a slight and I mean slight clunk in the front end when turning.
This video shows you what I found was the culprit.

 

auto mechanics with a pipe wrench, nice technique Al!

 

Yep. I had to replace these on my truck. Same popping sound.

 

He he he.....all I had to hand at the time to twist that sucker to show how bad that joint was.

 

thanks guys, i'll be taking my tire off tomorrow and checking it.

 

good luck.
