Another front end noise question

I own a 2018 Tundra Platinum 4x4 with 56,000 miles, completely stock, purchased new. I’ve been experiencing an intermittent pop noise from the front end when driving at low speeds and turning, particularly in parking lot scenarios. The issue is noticeable only after the truck has warmed up, and I can feel it through the driver’s side floorboard.

This noise is distinct from the ABS self-check sound that occurs after startup. I’ve inspected the front-end components and confirmed that nothing is loose, including the brake calipers, sway bar, shocks, and other parts. To rule out potential causes, I also removed the TRD skid plate, but the issue persists.

I recently took the truck to a reputable local shop that specializes in performance modifications and custom fabrication for Toyota and Lexus trucks. However, they were unable to reproduce the problem or identify any obvious issues.

Based on my research, this seems to be a common issue without a clear fix.

What steps should I take next?

 

How loud and pronounced is this “pop”?

Does it sound sharp/metallic, or dull/muted?

sharp metallic typically indicates metal-to-metal like ball joints, CV joints, sway bar end links, etc.

Dull is typically a bushing/isolator.

Also, is the frequency regular.. I.e. tied to rotation of the driveline or intermittent?

 

The pop is definitely intermittent and can be very pronounced but other times less pronounced. When it's loudest, it does sound more sharp. I was able to reproduce it once when backing uphill into a parking spot with the wheel turned a quarter turn.
