everytime i have the wheels turned to the left and i am backing out, i hear what sounds like a single pop or clang about half way through backing out, or if i hit a bump or something, the other day i was backing out left and my front tires were going over a speed bump and so it was pulling the tires a bit and the pop\clank was really loud, and most of the time when im slowing down i will hear the noise again, just not as loud. it sounds like its coming from the front left. any clues?

I think its the tires rubbing the inner fenders but I'am not to sure. Mine did the same even with the factory tires so I wouldn't worry to much about it.

Control Arm Bushings. Thats what makes all my front end noise. I need poly bushings and struts! probably springs. Everything for the back while w'ere at it.

 

Sounds like ball joints to me!!

 

ball joints ehh.. how easy should it be to replace them? left and right? i know i will have to rent a puller\press from autozone, but with those tools how hard? and what exact parts do i need?

thanks
