well ive been lifted for a little over a week now, and a few days after the lift i noticed a small pop at full lock in reverse from the passenger side. today i took the ex out in the mud and when it was in 4x4 i felt/heard the popping (rotational with the speed of the wheels) but when it was in 2wd no popping except when at full lock sometimes. So do you think its the passenger side cv axle, also i noticed a tear in the boot and some grease in he area.

From what you say, Its gone. The clicking means the teeth have been stripped and are no longer grabbing. The boot being torn with grease leaking definitely means it needs to be replaced.

ok then, thanks, its fine to run down the road right?
 






yes but i would get it changed as soon as possible ... because if it does break it will tear up a whole lot more ... maybe get another one with low miles at a junkyard?
