i stuck a set of 2.5" leveling spacers on my mega cab, and now when i turn either left or right, i have a popping in the front end.. what could this popping be coming from? ball joints? track bar? i did make sure the bolts were tight on the track bar... any ideas?
 
I havvent figured my 08 out yet either, does the same, i almmost think its the sprinng sliding on the new upper mount as the post in the spacer doesnt fit the spring tightly, and there is no cup surrounding it to hold it on the outside. I notice mine is worse when it rains.
 
yeah that would make sense.. mine started popping bad the other day after it had been sitting after a rain..
 
My 08 was doin the same thing. Changed out the ball joints and fixed the noise on my truck.
 
I would check the track bar again. See if the leaf is popping when you turn the wheel. See if you can replicate it over and over, get someone to watch the spring.
