Hey guys i have had the car a little while and it started doing this a couple months back. Just havent had time to look but i am this weekend. There is a popping / creaking noise when i go over a bump or drop in the road. Coming from the front driver side tire, when it pops i can feel it through the brake pedal just a little. Just wondering what i can expect to look for when i get the wheel off. Im not to great on suspension type things, but hopefully it will be easy to spot. Thanks
 
I'm guessing the upper a-arm bushing (the rear one under the downpipe.)

The rubber dries out from the heat and eventually crumbles away.
 
Could be bad A frame bushings, top or bottom, the spring shifting in the perch, or the brake caliper shifting.

Yeah sounds like the spring is shifting. Will post up tommorow if i get the chance to look it over.
