Popping sound in the front end

So I have a problem that has caused me a lot of grief lately. My cherokee has been making this loud popping sound that I can kinda feel through the floor every time I turn, or the weight of the vehicle shifts, or when one wheel lifts quiker than the other.
I was told by one shop that it was my ball joints, then another shop told me they were fine. I replaced my sway bar bushings, along with the sway bar links and bushings, now the popping sound seems to be even louder.
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH MY JEEP?????
ANYthing helps. Thank you for your time.

check for parts rubbing together. maybe two things are touching and popping off when the suspension flexes or changes a little

Sounds like your Trackbar joint.....they have a tendincy to egg out the bolt hole and gain some play over time, mine pops occasionally but not much as your describing. it would be something to check out though
