so yea everytime i make a sharp turn like when the wheel is all the way cut or close to all the way their is a popping noise coming from what people have told me to be the axle

Is there some way to fix it or do i need a new axle

I want to temp. fix it b/c in like 2 months im swapping the engine and comes with axles, am i gonna hurt it or anything else even if i drive easy on it????

if anything take it out and have it rebuilt...i know here there is a shop that does it for 20-30 bucks takes them a few hours..or buy a new one ..you don't want that **** to really F#$K up and put you in a bad situation

If there's no grinding and the wheel doesn't shake when driving straight it should last you 2 months...4sho...just make sure there's grease in the boots--and not watery grease, I've found that in mine a few times!!

i second that, on the " you dont want it to get you in a bad situation", happend to me, fawkin people who did my clutch job damaged both "brand new" axle that was 6 months old. They damaged it by, after pulling out both axles out the tranny, they left it hanging on the front lca. after everything was put together. went out on a spin. driver side Popped out. and clunk, clunk, clunk,clunk all the way home, spent christmas/holiday weekend fixing that side. and now passenger side making noises, and the lower ball joint on driver side is busted. so much for the holiday weekend.
