Suspension popping noise

Suspension popping noise
About a month ago my axle pretty much exploded,but prior to that it'll make loud thump/pop noises when ever I turn the wheel. So after I figured that's why my axle blew up. So I replaced it, also I replace my lower ball joint, and the outer tie rod. I put in my new axle and went out for a spin. It'll make that same thump/pop noise but this time only when I get out my driveway, or when ever I turn the wheel all the way. Can it still be the axle? What else can it be? Help don't want my axle to blow up again

Re: Suspension popping noise
Try the 3-9 horizontal test and the 12-6 vertical test to see if it's either the tie rods or the wheel bearing are at fault.
Inspect the shock tower too
Check the front sway bar endlinks if they're worn and need replacing. Or even just remove the front sway bar and drive a bit to see if the noise goes away
(I'm not entirely sure if EX's came with front sway bars in the first place, but this is a common problems on CRV's so I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same for Civics)
