Im getting a clicking sound when driving even at the slightest turn from the front driver tire.

i replaced the cv axles (both front)
sway bar links and bushings (both front)
and hub assembly (driver only)

it only gets louder the sharper i turn.

any ideas?
 






Can you tell which side its coming from? Maybe by alternating driver's and passenger's window down? If its from the passenger side, or gets worse/louder when you turn to the left while driving, it sounds like the passenger wheel bearing may be going bad.

If this is the case, you may get an ABS warning light, too.
 






Well i figured it out passanger tie rod is shot.. the castle nut was almost about to fall off tightened it up and put in a new cotter pin. should last until my new tie rods come in. then alignment and tires.
