2001 RWD Ranger Pops/Clicks in turns

May 10, 2005 0 Replies

Greetings...



First, the background info...


2001 Ranger XLT 2wd
3.0 V6
5 Speed Automatic Bone stock, although the tires on it now are a bit taller than stock, but not by much.
89000 miles. No accidents or front end damage.

The problem...



While making slow turns to the right, the trucks make a pop or click noise, almost like a bad CV joint.



The sound is almost always noticed while turning slowly to the right. Pulling into a parking spot or backing out seems to cause the noise the most.



Any ideas? All the boots on the front look good.



Bushings?


Thanks! I'm not 100% up to date on this truck. I generally buy the service manuals for every vehicle I buy, but I haven't gotten around to this one yet.
