06 Ford Mustang loud popping noise

I just got my car out the shop for making a real loud popping noise when I turn I had the sway bar links change and the lower ball joints and control arms changed come 4 days later it is making the same exact noise again when I'm turning. What could it be now???

How many miles on the car? Does it have lowering springs? Could be the upper strut mounts.

I could also see it being either inner or outer tie rods

Upper strut mounts. Or bad spring isolators.

Get thee new of both, the GT500s for the tops.

It could, on an outside chance, be the strut, but I'm goin' the strut mounts.

This thread helped me with my 08 GT as I myself recently changed out the struts and shocks and was getting a popping when hitting hard bumps. I had tightened the sway bar links on the struts but not with full load. I just turned on the car and rotated the wheels to get behind the tire and tightened them down. No issues, alls quiet..
