I have a popping sound every once in a while when turning the wheel. I noticed when steering at a certain point when I turned to the left it seemed like there was a catch in the steering wheel (kinda like it was wanting to hang up)
Now I am hearing a poping sound when turning the wheel from left to right. When it started it wasn't that loud , but now it has got louder. I think it might be coming fron my steering box, but not sure. Can anyone help me with this one?

Thanks,
Jonathan

When I had the same thing it was the U-joints in the front drive shaft. Check you front axle u-joints too...

Tie rod ends will pop as well when they are shot..

Mine sounds like its falling apart. I am just acumulating parts right now and then I am going to rebuild the whole thing.

i had a leveling kit on my truck and it caused the track bar to make a popping sound on the lower end. turns out the mounting hole was wore out

Ok guys I found the problem my swing arm bolt on the passenger side was slightly loose, i would have never guessed that. fxwannabe night want to check that cause my sounded like the front end was going to fall out from under my truck.

What do you mean by swing arm? Are you talking sway bar or control arms?
