Angry Popping still not fixed!!

Ok here is the deal, my car has this anoying popping when I go over a bump or turn the wheel at a certain point. I thought it might have been the ball joints so I replaced the two lower ones but the upper ones looked ok. Also checked the boots on the rack and pinion for leakage but found nothin. It still has not gone away!! The only weird thing is when I get an alignment on the front end it slightly goes away but then returns after a short period. Anyone have any ideas cause im about ready to bust a nut??!!

could by your break calipers. i've seen that many times, the rubber bushings sometimes wear out. easiest way to check is hold the breaks going over the bumps see if it stops.

I wonder if I just replace the bushings it will make the noise stop.
