Popping in suspension

When I turn hard left at low speeds (0-10mph), I hear a loud pop on the left side of my front suspension. When I turn back right I hear another pop on the right side, but not as loud.

Is this possibly my sway bar making the noise? Any other ideas?

Have 5100shocks on OME springs with LR ucas. Plate bumper up front.

Thanks for any help.

 

I had the same issue when my uniballs in my UCAs were bad. Idk about LR UCA's though since they aren't uniballs. It is most likely an upper control arm issue though.

 

How many miles did you get out of the original uni balls that came with the uca's...curious because I just installed Fabtech uca's.

 

No clue. Bought the truck used. I put 20k on them. I'm assuming they had 15-20 on before I bought it.

 

Same here. Uniballs and alignment bolts not torqued correctly.

 

May as well check all the front suspension joints.

 

Ahh. I am reading that you don't want to use any kind of wet lubricant on these uniballs. Dry only.

 

I had a clunking and everything was new except my sway bar end links. Needle fitting on end of grease gun and I filled the rubber boots (4) all quiet now.

 

Hey, I have similar pops here and there. I checked and tightened all my LCA cams, which helped a little bit, but I still had popping. I also have LR UCAs and I think it is the UCA bushings for whatever reason. Mine are less than a year old I think and I installed them following instructions and torque spec, so I guess I'm going to contact SPC (LR mfg.) and see if they'll send me a replacement set. Otherwise I have already replaced my inner/outer tierods, sway bar bushings and links(all with moog greasable). I need to grease everything and see if it doesn't go away. Then I'll remove my sway bar to make sure it's not that.

 

What did you find out on this?
