I keep hearing a pop when I make a turn. It looks as though a bolt is missing.
Also my power door locks are not working anymore, unlock is working lock isn't.
My guess on your pop is a broken anti sway bar mount. Generally if one breaks the other side is right behind it. All the kits I have seen have both so if that's your problem change them both.
As for your PDL, do they lock with a key fob? or with the passenger side switch? Or no locking going on at all?
A single pop sounds like a possable ball joint. although a click click click would indicate a cv axle an alignment shop would be able to tell
