so i was turning the other day and heard a load pop. so i changed my u-joints in my axle and they were bad. so today i was turning and i heard the pop again. what could it be

 

steering box/shaft

 

how are all the links on the steering system? how is the ball joints?

 

one thing to look at is the trac bar mount on the frame end,mine was loose and was shifting when I would turn right or left makeing a poping noise.Ended up replaceing all the bolts.

 

yup, track bar. could be the frame bracket as mentioned, or the bolt at the axle mount.

 

Mine was also the track bar/bracket

 

how do i check that

 

bolts are easy to get to. just tighten them up as much as you can and go for a test drive. best to use an impact gun for these. except for the axle mount bolt. just use a ratchet/socket for this one.
there are three bolts inside the drivers front wheel well holding the bracket in place. then i believe two underneath for that bracket.
then there is one on the axle near the steering stabilizer on the passenger side at the end of the track bar.
there is also a crown nut on the tie rod end/ball joint end of the track bar. (but i doubt that is the one making the noise).

 

ok. ill try it tommorrow. could that be causing my death wobles

 

yes

 

so i checked the track bar/bracket and tightened everything up but it is still popping. i dont know what it could be
