2 Front end problems need help

I just bought a 99 f250 v10 4x4 w/ 139500. 1 problem is when i hit a bump in road i hear a poping noise in the right front of the truck. I would hope that someone can give me suggestions? 2nd problem is when i accelerate the front end vibrates and the vibration is'nt that bad it's just a annoying vibration that's not suppose to be there. This vibration just randomly happens i can't predict that the vibration will happen every time i give the truck gas. Can someone give me some suggestions on where to start? Thanks

I just went out and drove the truck again and that vibration is a miss that just randomly occurs,its rain/snowing here and this is the first time that the miss has occured in the week that i've owned the truck.

The miss could be a injector or a coil but hopefully its just a plug. Find out if the plugs have been changed. They say to change them every 100,000 miles, mine were ready at 70,000. The popping noise is probubly a bad bushing in the stabilizer arm or posibly a shock. the only way to tell is to crawll under there and get dirty.
