    Yea, my driver's side tore a few months ago and now my passenger one is ripped and about done since the grease is gone. When I aired out fully and then came back up to ride height, I want to say the axles were probably stretched to their limits and I heard some popping. Not sure if it was the joint coming out and popping back into place or some sound related to the airbags.

    I do hear some clunk/pop every once in a while when stopping or staring from a stop. Never hear anything when I am turning and such.
