maybe you would know this...
whenever i turn the wheel all the way to the left or right, it makes a clicking noise. i though it was the cv joint so i replaced it but its still makin the noise

Civic Jim

could be the other side??? if not then it could be the disc gard rubbing on the disc??? sounds like a cv joint to me though, you changed the outer one right ?

usually its best to change the whole axel, look and see what cv boots are torn and if they all are then replace those axles!

You will prolly have to get them off of ebay, cause when i got mine i went to every store i could find and they kept on tellin me that no one makes them, but that was almost 2 years ago so some stores might be able to get them now
