axles?

When i turn i get a large clicking noise , I think its my axle , How much would it cost to get 2 of them maybe used , But with not alot of miles on them? And how hard are they to install?

Sounds like your CV joints are toast. Don't replace the axles with used ones. That just asking for trouble. Call around and price the axles is what you should do.

hey go to worldwide im pretty shure that they have one in la its 100 bucks for each but with a 50 dollar core so theyre technically 50 dollars each if you return your old one....fairly simplesomeone on here will explain it for you but words of wisdom......drain tranny fluid first. the project should take about 1-3 hours depending on how mechanically skilled you are and the tols you have...

just replace the cv joints. it'll be a cheaper, and won't take much more time since you'll be removing the axles anyway
