im having the same problem it happens every time i hit a bump or go thru ruff road its getting on my nerves, also when i slow down i hear this grinding sound coming from the front wheels but it goes away when i press on the brakes but if i let go grinding comes back then it goes away when i speed up. i already checked the sway bars and struck tower bolts any other ideas?
 
that grinding sounds like a brake issue up front. Have you checked all the bolts on your caliper? i had a bolt back out one time on my bracket and i would get this shudder/grinding noise. pull the wheels off and go over the calipers thoroughly. shouldn't take but 5 minutes a side.
 
i have a 95 that has the same poping issues. it happens when i take off, slow down, and when i turn. some time when i press the clutch in. i have no clue what it is. i have checked eveything that you guys have said to. also you wouldnt know how to adjust a door hinge my driver side door is saggin alot and it is getting hard to shut all the way.
