Message:
Recently had popping noise in front wheels when turned hard either way or while turning and hard braking. Took to the dealer and this is what they did and so far so good:

REPLACED TRANS. CROSSMEMBER AND TORSION BAR ANCHOR PINS

Hope this assits anyone with this similar problem.

blckdak, I have the same problem on my 2000 4x4 4.7L CC. Took it to the dealer and they found nothing. Did those replacement parts fix your problem? I've also heard that ball joints may be the problem.

So ofar i haven't heard anything, but its not all the time i lock the wheels in a turn either. Also the front end doesnt seem as "bouncy" (maybe thats in my head though). But yea, so far no noises, but ill keep a ear out and keep ya up to date.

I too am having the same issue with my 2000 4.7 QC Sport 4x4. Took it in once and they replaced front sway bar bushing, taking it in again however since it's still making the same noise.
