Again, it’s not binding that people are running into. It’s worn out uniballs. They have nowhere near the lift span of the OE bushings. If you get the loud popping and creaking sounds just replace them and it will go away. I’m not surprised it’s the panhard bar that does it first since it reacts the entire side load from cornering. It takes a fair bit of driving, unless you do mountains in the winter, to wear them out, but it only takes a little wear for them to become noisy. Driving on worn out ones won’t cause any damage unless you really let them go. It just gets annoying to listen to.
