Default Popping when i go over bumps and turn!!!
Alright guys so my truck has started a popping noise coming from the driver side wheel well when ever I go over bumps and sometimes when I am turning. I can't seem to figure out what it is. Anyone else had the same problem?????

I have the same problem. My end links are tight, sway bar bushings don't look bad and I don't see anything loose. I wonder if it could be the struts considering I have a 06 with a 6" lift and the struts are original.

More than likely the upper ball joint.

That would be the sway bar link. The top nut is missing.

Make sure you replace both sides, not just the broken side.
