Default Popping sound

Sometimes when I turn or just going out of the house or going in(drive way is elevated), I hear a "POP" sound coming from the back, I am guessing its from the suspension??? Is this normal?

Is the sound similar to what's described in this thread?

I even tried to duplicate what was said in the other forum to make the sound but I didn't get any noise.

I hear it from time to time when I go over a small bump--sounds like a brief pop/crack--the same kind of sound new houses make when the frame expands/contracts in the winter.
