Front Axle Clunk in Reverse
Just traded in my '01 GC for an '06 GC Limited with the Hemi and couldn't be happier. However, I was backing out of a parking spot with the wheel cut to the right I heard a loud single clunk/pop. Not sure what this could be as I haven't familiarized myself with the WK front end. I'm thinking U-Joint or loose track bar bracket but that's pure speculation..
Any suggestions/help is greatly appreciated.

WK has IFS (independent front suspension) so no trackbar or control arms like the ZJ/WJ. It has "an independent double-wishbone setup like that which debuted in the 2002 Liberty"
Could be an A arm bushing, ball joint, u joint or something else, get it in the air and look for play.
