Default front axle

I'm in need of a new front axle. Mine clicks real bad when turning. Is this much of a job. Is it something I should try myself or seems how I know nothing should I take it to someone who does.

If you have to ask, I suggest you take it to a shop.

If you want to do this yourself and have no experience working with suspension on cars then I would suggest you have somebody help that has done it before.
For the most part it is very straight forward. However there are a couple parts that may need a trick or two for removal. If you don't have a clue what you are doing then this could become very frustrating and hopeless.

Bro asking these simple questions over and over isn't going to help you... But this site they call goggles I believe? Maybe google? It's really good for looking up the answers to questions that have been asked hundreds of times before....

I wouldn't do it if you had to ask. It's not very hard, but you don't want to do it without having some knowledge beforehand or the suspension components.

The task itself is very straightforward, but if you don't have the tools to break the axle nut free or to get the lower ball joint free then it will become quite frustrating. the axle itself is easy to replace. Getting to it, however, may be something that an experienced friend can help you with.
