Recently I replaced all right side front end parts on a 1995 ford thunderbird. These parts include a strut and spring assembly, a spindle assembly, upper and lower control arms, bearing assembly, tie rods inner and outer, and a strut rod. Initially the car was sent to a frame shop to correct some slight setback damage. After aligning the car today I am still hearing a poping noise when I make sharp turns and or brake suddenly. Would a loose strut rod connection cause this problem, If not what would be your assessment. Thanks this noise is driving me insane.

Yes it would but so would a bunch of other things too. Id start by making sure the strut rod bushings are installed correctly in order.
