how long do you guys axels last? I replaced mine last year, and got new shock and struts 3 months ago. Now i'm getting that loud annoyin g clunking metal grinding noise at slow turns to the left and right? Now i got new shocks and struts so i wouldn't chew up axels anymore. I mean it's only been a year, i drive alot but axels hsould last longer then a year, thier is a tiny bit of wine also, could it be my bearings? who knows, the car handles great and is alaaigned, but man i hate susspension noise, it makes everyone look at you.

it all depends. Maybe the boots have a small hole or slight crack in them, thus allowing tiny rocks and debris to mess with the tiny bearings in the axle.

Strut mounts? I think my left rear has gone. Clicks and clunks on slow left handers.
