CV Joints!
 
I have a pro 94 DX. Gettin these noises when i turn,...more like clicking noises..... i read the same problems posted in the forum I was wondering if anyone had like pictures on how to go about fixing these urself. like replacing cv joints or tie rod urself. If so please give me the link. As for the clicking noises when i turn, i think its my Cv joints or tie rod....need more inputs on what it can be.

It sonds like it's the CV Joint. I remember there was a how-to on Wil's (Groharlem) old site. Do a Search and you'll probably find it.
I'll try looking for it myself.

thanks guys......those pics to help. amm now the question is it worth it doing it urself or i mean it takes too much time or its difficut.....cause i have never done anything with suspension before. If i took it to a mechanic what would i be lookin at to change both the drivers and passenger side.

thanks

Is the passenger side much different from the drivers side? Ive done the drivers side in the past, and now my passenger side boot is cracking and needs to be replaced. How much different is it?

Well, you don't have to drain the tranny, and once you know where to hit the axle to get it out (take a long extension, place one end against the joint, hit the other end with a big hammer, and it should pop out, although it helps to have a friend to pull on the other end, but not too hard), it's easier to remove.
