CV joint/axle replacement, I used the search i swear to god Options

[97celiman]

alright i used the search and it came back with nothing so here it goes.
my passenger side started clicking from there im assuming thats what it is. ive got almost exactly 140k is the timeline correct?

do i have to replace these in pairs? i have heard mixed reviews

when i brake the popping (think of your knee popping really hard) stops and it goes away when i accelerate. it is the worst under 30 mph, i dont know if thats because its quieter and i can hear it more and/or if it is because the popping is farther apart and so its more pronounced.

i have heard of buying "half axles" and also, how much time do i have? obviously im going to try to replace asap, but gotta get the money first.

thanks for the help

this car is actually pretty easy. too bad pepboys ordered the wrong one for me, i will get to do it again when i either buy one from toyota or autozone, just depends on how much toyota wants for it. i will never do special order parts or get parts from pepboys again unless i'm in a huge pinch. it took them 3 times to order the axle, only because the first 2 times they lost the order. third time they got the wrong one, didn't fit the hub and was 1.25" too short. after that i just went back and got my money refunded.
