Default Clicking on the right side

I have a gsr in my ek, its on blown tokicos and ground controls all the way on the bottom (no rubbing issues). there is a clicking sound coming from the passengers side. we thought it was the axels and i got that replaced. what do you guys think it is?

buy a wheel bearing from somewhere, pull your knuckle, take the bearing and knuckle to a place with a press, have it pressed in. it should cost you 70 bucks for the bearing, 20 bucks to get it pressed.

If you pay 700$ you are a moron.

Wheel bearings are about 60$ each. (Do both at the same time). Take your knuckle off as bare as possible, and bring it to a shop. They will have them back to you in an hour or so for less than 100$.

lift each corner, w/ tranny in neutral and brakes off.

grab ur tire and spin the wheel, spin freely?
also grab it and jiggle it, there shouldn't be any play up/ down at all.

I probably wouldn't worry about my wheel bearing if it passed those tests.

cv joints should have been replaced along with your axles.
