Default Axle Clicking.

i replaced my CV joints a while back after i realized that they had finally torn open. however, im not sure about my left axle. Whenever i make sharp left turns, going near 10-20 MPH i get a clicking noise. when i turn right, i dont get this noise.

does this mean my left axle is the busted one? i just wanna check wtih you guys.

whenever i hear clicking noises when i turn i assume most of the time, that its my axle. you can check if your cv boots are torn or have any sort of crack on them,

well i replaced both the left and right CVs a few months ago and the left one still clicks on sharp left turns. there are no visble tears on either boot. im guessing it got containated.

clicking axles = broken axle right?

Default

when my pops changed the boot on our old legend, he didn't get it in correctly, and it clicked. but we then just replaced the axle itself, and it went away.
