Odd flexing/joint popping sounds on turns/steering issues 200 1989

How do, Stallison!

Read your other responses. Your description sounds like what I heard from my 90 240 some years ago. The “popping” type sound in Inga was particularly pronounced when making a slow 90 degree type turn where the two meeting road surfaces were uneven. My conclusion was a bad passenger side control arm bushing. Best way to examine them is on a lift. Short of that you could use a pry bar wedged in there to test for excessive movement.

One additional thought. If you use poly bushings they will be stiffer than stock. So, unless you intend on replacing all of them you might consider going stock.
