check that axle boot. if it sounds like your going up a roller coaster, then thats it. also if the boot is broken on that axle, it needs to be replaced. good luck

if you have weird clicking noises coming from your front-end, dont do burnouts


but yeah, probably the CVs. you might not have a bad boot though, it could be just the joint. is the noise worse when you accelerate while turning?

could be a wheel bearing too. grab the tire and shake it top to bottom and see if one side has more wiggle than the other side.

Isn't that the test for ball joints? I thought that when wheel bearings go bad you get a sound from the bearings when you go 30+ MPH.

Thats called wheel hop. Its bad for the car to do that.
