Pop/thump from front end in 4wd

[ShaneJos]

Went on some trail last weekend and put it in 4 High to cross a creek and climb out of the bank. When I turned sharp right I’d get a thump down by the passenger side front wheel. Same on the driver’s side front when turning sharp left. The thump happened when at or near full turn when I began moving.

2020 JLU with 2.5” Rock krawler lift. Wheel spacers. All else stock. 36k miles.

any ideas? I appreciate what input you have. Thanks!

This is normal.

Binding in 4wd will happen when there’s sufficient traction. Try not to go full lock in 4wd without a slippery surface below you, especially in 4HI.
