I did same thing, still have noise. my front left shock is blown, makes tons of noise. squeeks,
makes a metalic rattle noise over bumps, and some shifting noises if I turn. possibly shock blown? worth a look.. I too feel in through the floor, and if i go over a hill (where goes up and down quickly) i can feel the suspension kind of max out and then when it comes down i feel the "popping," which i attribute to the space in the spring that is otherwise taken up/reduced by the shock. Mine is completely blown, not just worn out, so i think and hope this is my only issue. Suppose to have it replaced in the next week or so and ill post up my findings.

Any new suspension? Did the popping noise begin soon after replacing the TREs and the
Control Arms? I agree with Picnicbob......check the sway bar links for correct tightness and is it stock ?

I actually fixed a popping noise this morning...
I was getting a knock/pop when giving the car throttle in 1st gear. It turned out to be loose top nuts on the top of both motor mounts. I tightened them both as hard as I could, and the noise is completely gone.
