Alright guys, last night the old lady was driving and she slide on the ice and bounced up a curb. Now when I turn left or right there is something that pops. I can't figure it out, its coming from the front end. I know its not the u joints I just changed them last month, all the caps are on them and there is no play in them what so ever. Anybody have any ideas. I have to take the jeep for inspection at 10 in the morn and would like to have it fixed by the time I have to drop it off.

Well today I found that my DS ujoint was shot, so I changed that. Took jeep for a ride and I was still having the problem. Then finally found out that the bolt holding my track bar to the axle is broke, or the track bar is shot. Had to stop working on it due to lack of light.
