Creaking or Popping While Turning Wheel

FYI, replaced the tie rod ends and the popping is still there. Need to get it up in the air to have a better look.

UPDATE: Turns out it was just a loose bolt where the gear rack attaches to the frame.

I was under there and saw them but thought there's no reason those would be loose and so I saved myself another trip out from under the car. When you're 60 you think about things like this.

Lesson: Don't jump to conclusions
