When on the road, even when NOT turning, i have extreme popping from my passenger side front tire. I han feel it jump across the frame at my feet. It started as a squeaking but has gotten worse.. Any help?

Could be the wheel bearing hub is shot, or the brakes are disintegrating. Jack the right wheel off the ground and do some tugging, turning and visual inspecting before driving it any further. Check both sides while you're at it.

Noises from the front end could be a very bad thing, and if you are not familiar with how things in the front end should be, you need to have a front end shop check things out before you wind up shaking hands with a tree.
