This last weekend I did a little trail riding and encountered a new noise. When I disconnect and the left, front tire drops a fair amount, it will make a loud popping sound when it begins to come back up. I am unable to tell if this at max or partial extension. Could this be a bad shock or the spring coming unseated and popping back in? Luckily, it happened twice. Sadly it was in a place where we could not investigate immediately and we soon forgot it happened. The Jeep does not ride any different, it is still sitting the way it was prior and 4WD still functions as normal. I have checked around the shock and found no fluids or dents, all nuts/bolts I could find checked tight and the spring shows no signs of breaks or kinks.
Where would you start a search to run this down?
