Default is it time for an axel

befor winter i noticed that my inner cv joint boot was crack all the way around ...i was broke so it being the inner i figured it would last ....it did but now going up hill or under load (accelerating) i get a nasty almost like wheel hop from the passenger side(the side with the cracked boot) when i let off the gas its fine

i though my wheel was falling off but it wasnt that ...is this a common problem when a cv joint goes
thanks

i don't know if going uphill like that means that it would be your cv joints, but if you drive your car in a circle and you hear a clicking noise, than it's your joints. try driving in a circle in both directions.
