Questions about messed up axles
I got bad axles with my SIR-II swap from HMO about 3 months ago. Anyway, the passenger side axle hasnt had grease in it for about a month, and half the time the boot isn't on. The driver side doesnt have grease in it either.
I've been waiting till I get $130 to trade these in and get new ones so I dont really care. Anyway, they click HORRIBLY! especially the passenger side, it makes noise when I driving straight.
When I look at my car from the front, the bottom of the tire is farther out than the top, on the passenger side (worst side), but the driver side loks allright. I was wondering, is this due to the totally fucked up axle?
Also, I was wondering, if its clicking like hell whenever I turn, is it possible for it to break? If so what would actually break? would the spider break a leg off, or a bearing seize?
Thanks, I'm just wondering if shitty camber can be due to a bad axle, and if one of these is just going to break some day (what would happen if it broke while I was going 70 on the highway?)?
Thanks

Re: Questions about messed up axles (GPoodle)
well for starters if u have no grease left u need to replace them ASAP but u know that all ready. Also if u ride around with your axles like that the axle will snap and bye bye u go off the road or worst now im not sure if the camber will cause those problems ur having but it needs correcting very soon for ur safety later.
