Default I got a popping in my front end

It only pops when I'm backing up with wheels turn. I've replace ball joints. And replace the tie rod ends that had alittle play in them. The wheel bears and axle joints look great when I replace ball joints. I change fluid in differental and look gears all over good. Everything looks great there. Not sure what else could be. I have a 07 jku with a 4" rough country lift running 35" tires. Lifts been on it for 4 1/2 years. And I check all bolts on track bar, draglinks and control arms. And help would be great.

Thanks Donald

Will do. I just put different control arms on before I started to do all this but they wasn't new so might be wore out.
