Default Front end pop

I notice that at low speeds (under 10mph) I get a nasty pop from the front end. Usually it is when I am turning in to park and I hit the brakes. I do not get the pop while I am driving at speed. It can be heard and felt, almost feels like a ball joint but they are fine. Car is an 02 with 70k miles on it.

check my signature for the link to the PREP. if your compliance bushings gets worn enough it will completely seperate. its the bushing that adjusts caster.

Where can I purchase new compliance bushings if mine are compromised?

you can either get replacements from kingmotorsports i think or evasive. Mugen makes replacements but they are not cheap. i lucked out and found a member selling a low mileage unit from a part out car.
