Just lowered my 05 2wd Tahoe with djm lower control arms and belltec 3-4" rear spring kit from Norcal-Ss..I used my factory sway bar end links on rear ,new djm ones are on the way.Now when I stop or take of there is a popping noise in the front end..Any ideas ??

Might be the upper ball joint djm makes a set of upper arms to fix the ball joint angle

I think it was a combo of torsion bars settling and front sway bar end links.

If it pops at the end of a tight turn probably pitman arm bushing worn, need new arm. That fixed mine years ago

I replaced the piyman and idler.Still done it.Yesterday I tightened the crossmember bolts,sprayed some on blast on t-bar ends,and checked bushings at. T-bar mount under driver/passenger.The bushings were good ..Went and drove and no more popping.Its either t-bar ends popping in the sockets or the crewmember?
