Default front popping noise

i have a 94 sc400 and whenever im backing up and turning the wheel i hear a popping noise coming from the front right. it happens whether im stepping on the brake or not. but it only happens when im backing up and turning the wheel. does anybody know what this could be?

checked lower control arm bolts and found them pretty loose. tightened the sh@t out of them and noise is gone.
