My car done the same thing, it's a 98 Z-28, so I took it in to the chevy dealer and found out that the drivers side upper control arm was bent and cracked. I could literally grab it and jerk it around while the car was on the ground. Might check the ball joints too, if one of them is bad then it would cause the front suspension to be loose and pop. Hope this helps

A noise can be anything from a loose bolt to a dry bushing. First thing to do is hit all the bolts with an impact and lube all bushings.
