What could it possibly be? I first replaced the passenger side and the clicking went away and came back so I then I got Honda to diagnose it and they said it was the driver's side. Replaced that too and on the same day, clicking came back.

This is while turning left. It now only clicks occasionally.

What type of axle are you using? I have seen some aftermarket axles come out of the box clicking.

No, my car wasn't wrecked.

No, my car isn't slammed. It's only lowered 1.5 in the front and 1.0 in the back

The axles are in all the way. Unfortunately, I do have a feeling that it's faulty rebuilt CV cause that's what it looks like it's leaning towards. Dammit.

Thanks though. If there are any other suggestions, by all means.
