My truck has a hard loud pop noise when I turn either direction or when I hit a dumb in the road. It doesn't really happen unless the vehicle is moving though I can make it happen if I rock the truck. It's not a continual popping it's single hard pops

The best approach is to have the steering and suspension systems inspected at a tire and alignment shop. They're experts at finding the causes of squeaks, rattles, and other noises and vibrations. You don't want to wait too long. If this is due to a ball joint that's about to separate, that can lead to loss of control and a crash.
