Wierd noise while driving

[Wolf]

That sound is like what my AC compressor made before it died...

Good luck with whatever it is!

Looks like your CV boot has shit the bed. Pull it back where it's broken and see if there's any grease left on that CV. My guess is that your CV is going out.

I second that.

Clean up the mess and look closely, cant tell for sure but kinda looks like a crack in the LCA??

Also all that gunk's point of origin, that isnt a leak in the brake line is it?

Out with the old...

Brake lines look good, i couldnt find any cracks or play in any joints.

Had a hell of a time getting original axle out, new one went in without issue though.

Some in progress shots. All that gunk was hell to clean... test drive went well in neighborhood. Drive into work tomorrow will tell

Removal of brake caliper and lower ball joints, is how my mechanic changed mine.

Drove to work today, drove to and from Home Depot and the noise seems to be gone.

Its damn cold today, glad I got the job done yesterday.

First time doing such an install on my own in my garage. Very happy with the results and happy that my oldest son came out to "help" also.

Looking forward to diving into more jobs like this in the future!
