Welcome to :SNSign:

I'd bet on a balljoint or broken swaybar end link before thinking a popping was related to the bearings.

Agreed. Tell us when it pops. For example if when backing up and then hitting the brakes, that's almost always an end link. More info will help. Dont forget things like strut bushings (the pothole seated or destroyed it), etc.

Good luck.
