So, I noticed I was getting a clicking noise from my driver front axle when turning and slowing down. I think ok axle is going bad. Check it out. The CV boot has slipped off of the halfshaft end. No rips or tears in it Just slipped off the end.
any suggestions on how I go about fixing this? |

talk to slo-pny i think replacing the boot and replacing the whole halfshaft there is only like $20 dollar diff.
but dont quote me on that one just replace the whole shaft so you dont have to worry about it anymore -------------------- Dodge Neon SRT-4

the shafts are around 110 including a 50 core, but the boot is only like 20 but the labor is about the same unless you are a do it yourselfer
i need new cv halfshafts cuz when that downpoor came down the parking lot was flooded up to my bumpers for about 2 hours, and now i think the cv boots are shot and the joints are dry -------------------- Dodge Neon SRT-4

I've got a good used DS front axle that should work for you. Very good condition. $40, no core!
