Default Poping sound After CV axle install

I have a 99 Honda accord EX 4cly. I replaced both CV axles yesterday. I drove it afterwards and everything seemed fine. i replaced them with new axles not remaned shafts. Today I drove it around a heard a popping noise while I was in motion about 10 to 15 mph and turning right or left. So I stopped in a parking lot and did a slow turn in both direction NO noise what so ever. I looked under the car and saw nothing out of placed. noting seems to be rubbing. Any Ideas would be greatly appreciated.

Could be related or just one of those things. Suggest getting it back in the air and double check everything that was part of the work, then start inspecting everything else.

Balljoint loose?
Bushings on inboard end of control arms?
Bushings where shock-fork attaches to lower control arm?
Anti-roll-bar end-link?
Anti-roll-bar bushings?

I jacked it back up and checked everything. it all seemed fine. It stopped popping while I turn now it just makes a popping sound when i go over bumps. when ever the front suspension extends it seem to make a popping noise.

So if you jack it up slowly, can you re-produce the sound?
