Default Tocking sound. What could it be?

Alright so when i swapped my suspension and wheels back on the car after winter, i get this tocking sound which is a rythmic beat to the speed im going (when i speed up it tocks faster and when im going slow it tocks slower but always in the same rythme.

This only happens at one specific point when i crank the wheel to the right, but now its happening on the left side as well. The left axel is brand new from last september and the right one has a ripped CV boot.

Also one time i was at the drag strip and spun my tires on launch. Right after the sound was constant as im rolling forward in a straight line, again in the same rythmic beat.

I let the car rest for about 45 minutes while i was eating... as pissed as I was i get in the car to see if it'll do it again and it doesn't do it anymore going straight but it still does when turning both sides.

What could the problem possibly be?

Does the noise sound like its coming from the Right front? Take a look at your ***** joints and check for play. It could just be your axle.

You should start by checking the condition of both axles.
