Default CV Axle possibly?

I had pulled the drivers side suspension apart to get new control arm bushing. Had a hell of a time putting it back together to figure out that I accidently pulled the CV axle out of its socket on the inner part of the axle. I got it to go back in by shoving really hard. Now I test drove it and now I hear a slight clunking noise when I let off the accelerator. Drives perfect while accelerating. Is it the Cv or can it be something else. Did not have this kind of noise before.

Double-check your work. Something is loose or not in properly.

I went in this morning to look for loose nuts or bolts and its pretty solid overall. Ima just replace it anyway because it looks old just for maintenance

Anti-swaybar bushings tend to clunk over bumps and when letting off accelerator. They are easy to replace, just don't overtighten them. Use the manual to find the right thread height.
