Need Help with Popping Noise!!

[Mogman]

Takeaways from this:
Loud popping noise-check brakes.
To test:
-Remove brake caliper and pads.
-prop caliper up under there out of the way hooked up.
-Go back and forth a few time and see if it happens again.
-The brakes will be soft, the piston on the caliper will extend all the way out and leak so you will have a few times to test it out.
-If it is the caliper and you want to slap it back up there you will have to turn the piston for it to go back it.

Hope it helps someone out there haha

If you step on the brakes without the calipers installed the pistons will travel out and blow the seals and damage the dust boots.

Yeah, not a good way of doing this. Block of wood, thick piece of steel, etc. inserted into the caliper would be a better method.
