Clicking noise when turning

[gatzby143]

When I make left hand turn I sometimes hear and feel a clicking coming from the front end. Do you think that I need a new half shaft and if so what side would it be?
Thanx

Sounds like a half shaft. Put the front end the car in the air and turn the wheel full chock and put it in drive. Have someone listen to it while doing that.

Wouldn't you just have to replace the entire axle due to CV Joint failure? The boot is probably ripped and has been....

yup see if the boots are ripped on your axels, that lets dirt and grime work their way into t he CV joints and tears them up. Worst case scenario bust an axel and have to be towed home, best case scenario buying a new axel asap
