Red face Front End Noise

Looks like I need more help!~
When my sits in the garage for a short while and I back it out of the garage a popping sounds happens as if the ball joints are stuck. It doesn't happen all the time but it really sounds bad. I have done nothing to the front end so I know it wasn't something I installed. Does anyone have the same issue. I was kinda wondering if it was the sway bar or the control arms.
I appreciate all the help...

Thanks!~

Jim, check your upper control arm bushings.
Mine are shot and GM does not sell bushings ,only control arms.

Red face Hmm!~

Any suggestions on the fix? Replace uppers or find replacement bushing from an outside vender?
