Icon4 Bad Clicking and Wheel Skipping in Turns.

I get really BAD clicking sounds/sensation and my steering wheels feels like its skipping and catching when only when I'm gasing during a turn. I also Changed my rack and pinion and the problem is still there but recently its gotten alot worst and is more prone and sensitive. I drive a NO power steering B16 Del Sol. Its literally worst feeling going into turns feel like my wheels or something is just going to snap.

Now I know what you're thinking, AXLE.
No my Axles are fairly new not many miles on them and had this problem even after changing them.

I don't know what to do. I'm going to take a heavy look at suspension tomorrow morning but any ideas?

THANKS SO MUCH in advance. I'm getting desperate here.

autozone axles are lifetime, take them back and get another set, I have gotten axles from right out of the box

also check to make sure you got enough fluid in the trans, because is also sounds like it could be the diff

Man just the other weak I went and got a autozone axle, put it in felt a bit of play didn’t think anything of it... Drive the car around the corner axle popped out of the part where it attaches to the intermediate shaft with that part of the axle still on smh

So basically i have another in and I’m scared it’s gonna do the same thing lol just buy OEM.

Sounds like you didn't install them correctly. Did you knock them in enough to here a click when seated into the differential fully?
