I'm hearing an intermittent popping sound when turning the steering wheel a large amount. When I got under the vehicle to listen while my daughter turned the steering wheel, I found the noise to be coming from the steering box area. I have the Ironman steering box brace, a JCR steering box spacer, and lots of Grade 8 hardware holding everything together. Nothing is moving, and there are no cracks anywhere in the frame.
I found by accident that turning the steering wheel to full lock eliminated the popping sound. Any suggestions as to what's happening? My current thought is that there is/was an air bubble in the PS fluid in the steering box. The fluid level in the reservoir is full.
