car suspension pops

I'm not really sure what's going on here but my suspension pops when the car is rolling and the wheel is turned to lock, also pops on acceleration and braking.
When I check for suspension play and everything by shaking the wheel when it's jacked up I get no play what so ever. All my suspension parts are about a year old too. After torquing everything back down still same pop.
my steering wheel feels like it only sometimes doesn't sit straight, mostly straight though
also I know my inner cv axles are toast cause of the shaking on acceleration. But would that cause a pop?

my buddy told me it might be my sway bar links or bushing. Would that sound right?

Also I have noticed an odd almost like fluctuation when going fast around a sharp turn like a feeling of oversteer then it changes to under steer... Very odd. my rear links are moog and front are stock from factory with 200k

Look at your end links. They are visible from underneath the car. If they are bad, you will know!

It's not a clicking like a bad outer joint but just a single pop and it comes from both sides of the car
