Alright. So I was out driving last night and my XJ would make a popping noise on sharp left turns. And then my front passenger brake/caliper starts squeeking and then some rough vibrations. I don't know if it's CV joints or ball joints. Or if it could be anything else either. Any help would be awesome since this is my daily driver. It's an 89 Cherokee Laredo. Thanks.

If someone told me they were selling that stuff I would be like 120 lol cause I don't wanna spend my money Haha. But its not to bad of a deal, let a few others guys voice there opinions on this asap
