Default crunching and popping

da knuckles, si upper and lower CAs. didnt pop or crunch at first but now when i turn and stop or launch it pops and crunches. looked at it and nothin looked loose.
was thinking maybe ball joint tapers are different.

Anyone else having this problem.

i dont think so but maybe, when i mash it at 5k i can hear it pop and crunch. it might be my diff ill see axles seem fine i held on to them and tried to see if the are broke or worn loose not them. its like a broken mount but not a broke mount.

Sounds like a blown CV joint. Does it do it when you turn too? Get some new driveshafts (always a good investements) and if you do that, buy some with lifetime warranty. All my cars have brand new lifetime warranty shafts. I've launched the car at 7400rpm and blew one up, that day I had a new one in there haha.
