Popping noise when turning right

I have a 2006 2500 QCSB 4x4. When I turn right I am getting a loud popping noise. It doesn't happen when sitting still. If I back out of a parking spot it will happen almost every time and it will often happen on forward right turns. I installed a new tie rod end at the pitman arm and it seems to have made it worse. Hopefully someone can push me in the right direction.

my money is on your track bar... the bolt backed off a bit on my 06 a couple times, kinduva PIA to get a good turn on, I can't remember exactly how i did it. But i ended up getting a shallow 12 point socket on there with a cheater. tighten it as tight as you can...

theres a bushing in there too... could be time for a new one. good luck! PM me if you have any questions.

My guess is one of your axle u joints

Turn the wheel full lock one way and put a pry bar and wiggle the shaft just behind the u joint unless it's frozen you'll see it move.
