Ok so I've been trying to find info online with no luck about these sounds coming from the front end. It sounds like a clicking/popping sound when going over bumps or even a slightly bumpy road and also when I'm slowing down. I was thinking it was the ball joint but I looked at them and the boots are fine no crack that I can see and no grease anywhere. I shook the cv joints with my hand lightly and there's a lot of play in them and when I did this I heard what I think is the same sound, but at the same time when I'm accelerating and turning there's no sound only when I slow down and driving a bumpy road. So I'm not really sure what's going on, so any help with this is appreciated. I have a 93 4 door.

double check your pads, try removing and make sure everything is sitting correctly

I have a 93 civic dx. I recently replaced (about a month ago) the inner and outer tie rods on the passenger side and both front rotors. I checked the pads and they're pretty beat but still have a lil life left in them. Also my driver side CV is pretty shitty and my neighbor said that could be making the sound... Its really easy to move up and down with my hands.

I have c8 sport shocks in not sure what type they are I don't think they're the adjustable one's. They were already on the car when I got it..

The only big issue with my breaks are the the caliper slider bolts are frozen and don't move at all. So I'm going to get new calipers soon

A bad axle can make clicking/popping noises. That is typically while turning.

If the springs are using a progressive spring rate (coils extremely close to each other) you might be getting noise from them making contact with each other, although a noise like that is not common on the older cars. you can put a thin piece of rubber between the coils to see if it goes away. You should also make sure that the thin rubber isolator is on top of the spring still. Any rubber that is in contact with the spring is for noise reduction.
