What do I do? I know two sets click and one set doesn't, dunno about the last set. But, i mixed them all up by accident. d16z6 swapped ej2, not that it's relevant to my question whatsoever.

You made a painful error. You obviously want to use the ones that don't click, but you must re-install the permutations to sort good from bad.

Take each of them apart and inspect all the CV joints. Mix and match the ball bearings and joints with all the best conditioned parts. Regrease them and enjoy your freshly rebuilt axles.

Autozone axles are not the best, expect to replace them for a while until one comes by that you won't have to replace in a long while. The axles at advance auto....I have not gotten any issues.

I don't know what arbies is. Care to explain arbies? Are you trying to say ARB? Like the company that makes air lockers?
