Default Click/pop in front end

Since coming back from a wheeling trip I have noticed a click/pop in my front end when turning the wheel left. Happens moving or still. More when sitting still and just turning the wheel. Thoughts on what to check?

Have someone turn the steering (with the engine running so that the power steering is actve) while you are on the ground in front of your jeep listening and feeling for the source of the pop/clunk/noise.

I'd bet that one or both of your front trackbar bolts are not torqued to 125 ft lbs.
