What is the cause of a popping sound when pulling out from the front driverside wheel?
aside from from debris or something wrong with your driver side tire like a "broken belt" or maybe you have a clearance problem, some other common type of noises are generated by the drive axle's deterioration due to lack of lubrication (grease), if the boot seal is ruptured allowing the axle grease to be lost the axle will deteriorate and become damaged. One of the tell tale signs is the "popping or clicking noise emitted by the axle especially during sharp turns. To fix this, remove the axle and the rubber boot seal, clean and inspect the bearings and their cams for damage. you can remove the bearings by rotating the cams 90 degrees from each other. If everything is in good condition re-grease the bearings re install the boot seal and a new clamp. after that proceed to install the axle and wheels. good luck.

I did replace a boot with a homemade cloth one. That lasted a long time.
