doesn't mean the axles is bad. If it isn't binding in turns just go to your local autoparts store, advanced auto parts, autozone, pep boys and get a reboot kit and fix the boot. Sounds like it has a tear/hole in the rubber boot.

your axle boot is probably ripped.

The axle boot is torn somewhere which is allowing axle grease(black stuff) to spray everywhere when wheels are in motion.

I suggest you just buy a new axle and turn in yours as a core. Pep Boys has a life time warranty.
