Popping sound when turning steering wheel and stiffens when turning

Ok so a coupe weeks ago my front end would start making a popping sound when turning the steering wheel all the way and it would stiffen up when driving and making a turn. I have no clue what it is can someone help?

Re-ground everything having to do with the power steering, there's a thread here somewhere.


If that doesn't solve your problem, then there's a possibility you need an new axle. Does the sound happen when you turn in one direction only, or is it present when turning in both directions?

If I remember correctly, It's a broken end link.

The electrical I'll try this weekend. But it's not popping right now it feels kinda like the power steering would if I was cutting in and out. And from the other guy by end link do you mean sway bar end link?
