In the wheel, in the suspension? You can get a suspension pop from time to time depending on the terrain..but if in the wheel down to the ball, you would just have to trace it down the steering arm.

Having read through this thread https://www.crossfireforum.org/forum...surprised.html

I saw a few people describing a similar clunky/popping noise. I ordered a new stabilus steering damper and will update when I install it when it gets in on monday.

also check the inner fender liner behind the front wheels towars the back of the wheel well. I found that mine had been bent and reformed in the cold weather and as I backed up I would hear a popping noise

I installed a new steering stabilizer last week, and I now have a popping sound, so today, I am putting the old one back on. Beginning to think when bolting it up, there was a difference in the diameter of the hole. We shall see....

Just replaced mine, totally fixed the popping sound! It also really tightened up the steering, which I wouldn't have called bad before, but it is definitely improved now.
