Clicking noise when making U-turn

I recently had all four shocks replaced on my 1999 4Runner SR5 V6 2WD.

Had the brake calipers, pads, and rear shoes replaced as well.

Then I started hearing clicking (popping) sound from the front driver wheel when making a U-turn. Anytime the wheel is turned all the way to the left, I heard this couple of clicking (popping) sounds.

I had the wheel alignment performed since the car was out of alignment after the front shocks were replaced and also thinking it would take care of the noise issue.

After wheel alignment, I still hear the noise when making a U-turn.

Any ideas? It is not the CV axle since I have 2WD.
