Default Very Loud Clicking from my DA

Whenever i made right turns it made a clicking noise. So people told me that i needed to replace my Driver Side CV shaft(the rubber piece was all torn and ripped apart on the inner joint) so i assume that was the only problem, so i went and replaced that with a new one wiht my buddy. I went to take it for a test drive, the clicking was still there, and still loud. SO we check my passenger, the passenger outer joint had a leak, so we took the outer joint from the one i took off(cause it was still in good shape) and replaced it. But it back on, and it still made the clicking noise.

Wat can it be???

couple buddys say its my tranny cause CV Joints shouldnt be making that much noise.

Still sounds like axle to me, and just to let you know, 2 out of the 4 axles that I have replaced from Autozone clicked as soon as they were installed.

did you just replace the rubber? the joint is whats clicking. you need to just replace the axle.

You got lucky, believe me, they seem to just slap a boot on with some grease and not even bother with the cv joint. Like I posted earlier, I am batting 500 with my Azone axles, but the two that are on there now are good so far, at least no clicking.

how low is your da lowered? mine is pretty damn low and ive always had problems with them clicking or binding on the left axle..even with good boots on them..what i did was use a left axle from an 89 integra...its something like 1/3 to 1/2 inch shorter so it doesnt bind up from the extreme angles if your cars too low like mine

im sorry please disregard my last post...that axle will only work with the jdm intermediate shaft which is longer..it works on my car because ofthe jdmb16 with intermediate shaft..i tried it on a usdm b18a1 today and it didnt work out too well..the bearings shot out of the half shaft during a u turn while test driving
