I would check the brake drum self-adjusting stars.I have had 2 cars do the same thing and eventually found that the adjusters were wore out and allowing the brakes to grab and pop.Usually it would happen after backing up and taking off, or a low speed turn.Good luck

Try disconnecting the sway bar and see if it goes away. I'm not suggesting you leave it off... just see if the pop goes away. If it does then you have a little bit of info to help you chase it down.
I just upgraded to a 1" rear sway bar from BMR Fabrication. After making the neccessary modifications to accomodate the 1" bar and geting it all mounted and tight, I now get a popping noise as well. I'm still trying to chase it down. It happens when the tries to "lean" towards the driver side.

A bad axle bearing can pop when turning. Check for up and down play at the flange end of your axles.
