Pop in steering and thump in under carriage

Usually a BUBBLE in the tire or you need a tire alighment

most def you need an alignment and you also need to check inner outer tie rod end and check the tires belt as well

if your lucky, its just a u-joint going out.

try replacing the u-joint which connects the driveshaft to the rear end(differrential), and if that does not solve it, then have your differrential checked out (a bad differential usually wont get all the power to the wheels that its supposed to) or just have it replaced, possibly with a junked differrential form a wrecked vehicle with low miles.

Why drive side bearing could be a bad other.balance yes, tie rod could be bad.

Check the stabilizer bar bushings, links, ball joints, and tie rod ends for play (looseness)

A BEARING MAKES A GROWELING NOISE.
BRAKES WOULD MAKE THE NOISE WHEN APPLIED.
THUMPING MORE THE FASTER YOU GO, LIKELY A TIRE THAT IS SEPRATING.(NO LONGER ROUND)

most likely your problem is the exhaust system bumping. If it sounds like it is coming from front of vehicle, it may be struts clunking. Rear shocks can also do this if they are worn.

If it is a continuous thump (ie thump, thump, thump) that changes in speed with the speed of the vehicle it is likely related to a tire problem.

If it happens when you hit a bump or immediately afterwards it is likely due to something loose or worn out in the suspension.

If it happens somewhat randomly and doesn't seem affected by bumps it may be a loose piece of trim, or something loose under the car getting knocked around by the winds.

Check both ends of the transmission crossmember to make sure bolts are secure...also check trans mount...it may have failed.

It's probably the rear sway bar links. If you can jack your car up and check right behind both rear wheels you will be abale to see the sway bar which is connected to short links about 5in long with ball joints.

If either of them are broken or not connected anymore it can cause some pretty loud noises when you ride on rough roads or hit bumps. They run about $35 per link so it's not a very expensive repair.
