I'm getting an occasional popping noise from my front end when making turns like turning into a store and it seems to do it more when backing up and turning like backing out of a driveway. My ball joints are new upper and lower Moog brand. Those were just put on at the beginning of this year along with a 2 inch front leveling kit, the kind that goes above the springs. Now I was able to use my stock shocks, but when truck is lifted off the ground (no pressure on wheels) my shocks are at almost full travel. I didn't get the shock extenders. Anyhow after leveling kit and ball joints was installed is when I started hearing the noise. There is no play in my ball joints or tie rod ends. All lugs are tight. What could this noise be?
