clicking coming from front of car
 

when i am driving my car down the road i can hear a ticking or sorta like a rattling coming from the front of the car. It only happens when in gear though? also i can feel it in the shifter when i am in 3rd gear. My CV boots are tore, could that be it? just making sure it isnt anything worse than that.

car is a 92 laser AWD
basic bolt ons
Thanks

Ding, Ding, Ding, you just won yourself a new set of half axels. I would replace them as soon as possible cause bad things happen if they really go. Should pnly be about 75-80 a side and don't take too long to swap. Make sure and drain your tranny before you pull them out.

I ran my Jeep for 2-3 years with a torn boot... oops. went from a a click to a god awful CRACKING noise, than my cage and inner race snapped. 3 wheel drive is fun and all but get that fixed ASAP. I only paid $60 for 1 side.

I would go with new CV joints from Raxles, not some crap non turbo (right side anyway) rebuilt ones. I have Raxles CV joints in my ride, but thay aren't cheap like $125.00 for the right side, but are stronger and will last longer. The remans are not as hard as new ones after thay regrind them. Just my two cents.

dont worry ive got them already, just making sure this was the problem before replacing them.

THanks for all the help guys

I did the same thing, only on a MUCH larger scale at Elite during the burnout contest...

I'm sure someone around here has video. I'm told by Mitsu that I broke everything from the axle (right side) to the tranny... it was bad news...

Issue was a bit more than an axle. If anyone has access to a 1g drivers side awd axle, non abs pm cudvig, he is also looking for a 23spline tranny in good condition, or a good deal on a 22spline tranny/t-case combo.
