Default Popping sound in sharp right turns (not the axle)

Ok i recently replaced my driver side axle cause the boot wripped and today I replaced the passenger side axle cause when I would turn to the right sharply I got a loud clicking sound which made me believe it was the axle both axles are 100% new not used or rebuilt, new inner and outter tie rods and ball joints , new brakes and pads, I did recently do a swap but the axle clicked when turning to right with the previous swap as well.
Don't really know what it could be at this point
and it's definitely a rotational clicking type of sound

if your sure its not the axels, it could be the wheel bearing because that would only make a noise when turning one way. but then again its not usually a clicking noise. if you cant figure it out, take it to honda and let the experts tell you whats wrong and then you can replace it lol.

still working on it...i went to an empty parking lot an drove in circles...it doesnt sound like its coming from something internal as in transmission... honda was kinda busy today so didnt have time to get the buddies to take at it... i think im going to have a freind try to listen for the sound as i drive in circles with the hood off (just incase so it doesnt fall on there head hahahah

had the car up in the air today at a freind shop to check things out..
well apparently the boot on the axle i put in at the beginning of november when i did the swap is wripped already kinda pissed me off but it should be covered under warranty
and also i realized the axle seamed to be kinda loose towards the half shaft but the axle doesnt push in any further and doesnt slide out either
when i shook the axle it seemed like the only thing that could be causing the sound when i make sharp right turns i would expect it to be done when turning to the left but as of now i have to warranty the driver side axle and then also i guess check if the half shaft bearing is done for hopefully thats what my problem is
