Hello all , I have a D22 2001 QD32 occasionally i would hear what sounds as a cracking or popping noise if i am stationed in one position and i turn my steering left to right or vise versa eventually it stops after a few turns, also hear it when stopping or moving off, I had a friend hold the exhaust while stationary and i turned the wheel left to right it was making the cracking sound when he held the exhaust it stopped However we cannot pinpoint where its coming from exactly.has anyone had this issue before
 
Check ball joints, front cross member bolts, tie rod ends. Check draglink ends (that would be my guess).
 
ball joints were changed after the sound and its still there outer tie rods were changed after the sound I would have to look at changing the inner ones and check the drag link.
