Post subject:  front popping?
has anyone else had a problem with a popping noise coming from their front suspension when going over speed bumps etc?
about every other time I go over this speed bump on the way to work i get 2 pops out of my front right suspension. this concerns me because i put new lower/upper ball joints and outer tie rod ends on it the summer before last, could one of those already be going bad again? or something else? no popping when turning at all so it doesnt seem like CV. only other thing i can think of is the maybe an inner tie rod end? or something with the coil/strut?

hate to say this
but
its been discussed about 1000 times on here before.
More than likely sway bar links needs siliconed that will cause a popping sound over bumps
also would be good to know if you are lifted, what kind of lift if so, miles etc. makes it easier to answer a question like above

alright thanks, havent had too much time to research it yet so tried a quick post.
No lift, coils slightly saggy, 113000 Miles.

At 113,000 miles it could be (since the coils have sagged ) something else but I would try spraying the sway bar bushing up on the frame in front first. Most times that will take care of it , unless it is something else more major

its most likely the sway bar bushings as tom said. follow his directions, i did about a year ago and it worked like a charm
