I am experiencing the poping noise in the front end driver side. I have replaced the outer tie rod and it is still poping. I can recreate the noise by turning the wheel right to left quickly. I am also noticing that after I make a left turn, the stering will want to pull to the left while driving straight. It will continue to pull left until I make a right hand turn then it is back to no pulling. Any advice before I give up and pay the repair shop??????????

Welcome to AF.
Sounds like you need an alignment!
When you replace either tie rods or ball joints,
you can throw off you allignment and it will pull.
Also you did torq the nut correct on the tie rod?
ANd greased it?
