Hello everyone
I have a 07 h3 that im having issues with that i can't pin down.
While turning turning either left or right and hitting any pot holes large or small there's a popping noise coming from the front end somewhere.
I've replaced tie rod ends, wheel hub bearings, upper control arms, upper and lower ball joints, cv shafts and steering rack reinforced kit and front diff bushing kit from out fitter designs.
I not sure where to go from here any help is appreciated.

I noticed that lower control arm bushings are not on that list. How do they look? And front diff bushings - that's all three, correct? What about the bump/jounce stops? Any witness marks on control arms or other pieces from impact?

But I have a large popping noise in my front end when hitting bumps, rocks, etc. Mine sounds like metal on metal, like a control arm hitting the frame. I've replaced EVERYTHING in the front end and it hasn't gone away.

Check the u-joint in your steering shaft. Mine has just recently started 'popping'. And it and the frame are about the only things left to replace on my rig.
