are you sure you replaced the right axle? also how did you put the new axle in? if you hit them in too hard, it sometimes breaks the joint again. trust me i had it happen a couple of times.

as far as the noise, did you check your bushings and ball joints? how are they?

i had a shop install the axle. because there a family friends professional shop. as for the bushings they are stock and its a 95 civic hatch. and never been replaced.

it could be a CV boot or your hug assembly. if you have no grease in your CV bots it could make a noise and depending on the miles on the car you may need a new hub assembly.

hm i got 143000 miles on my car, maybe its time for a new hub assembly.

i had to replace one on a 2000 Chevy blazer a while ago but you only heard it when the car went over like 30mph but if you have a bad one it could be making the noises that you're describing.
