I have a "99 Jeep Cherokee Sport and just had the sway bar links and ends changed out. The popping noise was coming from the right front tire and when I took it into my mechanic he showed me the problem. It was metal on metal. I picked up the parts and he fixed the problem. No more popping and it rides smooth.

    I replaced the link today and the problem persists. :(

This may sound stupid but have you looked at your splash guards in your wheel wells. I had simular noises coming from one of my cars, I thought that it was the suspention, and after a while of looking around i found it was my splash guard rubbing against the tire. I was just glad I didn't take it in to a shop. LOL!

My 99 jeep cherokee turn signals and hazards ARE NOT WORKING.everything else works fine.it dnt even make the clicking noise like it should.the fuses are fine.wut else could it be?

You'll need to locate your "turn signal flasher" and replace it. You'll find it in either of the 2 fuse boxes, the owner's manual will have it listed. They are usually a small square box with 2 or 3 electrical prongs that just unplug and plug back into the slots. Please rate this answer, thanks.

4wd makes loud noise, also pops out of 4wd

Sounds "used and abused"!!! Likely you have more than one problem. Transfer case may need linkage adjustment or rebuild. Grinding from where? Wherever the noise is, look for a problem. Pulling can be from any number of front end component failures. Your best bet is to give everything a careful inspection or have a reliable shop go over it for you. There are so many variables in this I couldn't possibly give you any real answers!!!
good luck!

FRONT END

Drive the car in a parking lot and make left and right hand turns.
If the noise goes away on either turn then the problem is a front hub bearing.
If the noise is still there, it could be possible front differential bearings.

Knocking noise

Check your tie rods and the drag link bar which controls the steering. Have someone turn the steering wheel back and forth while you are underneath and you should be able to pinpoint the noise location.   I had the same problem on my 2001.  Replaced the lower tie-rod ends and also the ones on both sides of the drag link. This solved the problem.  Whether you do this job yourself or not, you will definately also need an alignment upon completion.
