If I turn right, and turn up and incline (like a driveway), I get a distinct POP fron my left front wheel area.

SOMETIMES, I get it by turning sharply at low speeds, like in a parking lot.

VERY noticable, but the dealer "can't find anything"..and...to make it worse, it is intermittent.:angry:

2007 ST...v-8 4x4.



Any input???
 
Try greasing the steering stops...

Not the steering stops...you don't have to be turned to the stops to have it happen...



dealer checked ball joints...



could it be the hub?
 
I get the same noise on my 04 trac. It is usually only when I pull in or out of the driveway. I think it may be the sway bar.
 
I have the same noise from my right front when turning left into my parking garage at work.............it's a pop sound, just one pop.........2007 4X4 limited. ??????? /Brad
 
I think this is a common noise on tracs, I read somewhere there is a TSB about it, but I wasn't able to retrieve it. I get it going over speed humps, and if I resist laughing and making a joke to the woman about speed humps, I can hear the clunk.
