You respond to my question about the clicking noise when I accelerate or turn was the drive axle or cvboot or cv joint.Ichecked the axle and it's okay but my cv boots are torn.Should I change just the boot or change the joint and the boots?The car still drives good except for the clicking noise.

AT THIS POINT YOU MAY WANT TO BUY A NEW SET OF AXLES. WHEN YOU START TO HEAR THE "CLICKING NOISE" IT MEANS METAL TO METAL WEAR IN YOUR CV JOINT
USUALLY CAUSED BY LACK OF LUBRICATION DUE TO YOUR BROKEN CV BOOTS
