Have you looked up under the car? A popping sound can be lots of things. In order to diagnose exactly whats wrong you will have to at least narrow it down somewhat. Good luck!!

T/C rods also known as radius rods. they go from your lca to the subframe and keep the lca from moving fore and aft.

had the same noise it was the upper ball joints. see if you can wiggle them forward and back if they have any play replace them.
