the only real issue that really isn't an issue is that when you turn the wheel all the way left or all the way right it makes a clicking noise until the wheel is straightened. Is this alignment? hmm. Input needed. Thanks

There are OEM PLugs for the holes...but they are very hard to come by because they break easy. I have some. :)

They run around $100 (with core return) If you keep driving it will kepp getting worse and evently snap. Also if its clicking the boot is deff gone and if the boot is gone it will not pass inspection

I'm not really car savvy and all. So does anyone have a diagram to show me the necessaries? Thanks again. Pictures of the boot and all etc. would be nice. Appreciate the help.

Just buy an axle off Ebay, my last Accord I paid $60 shipped for a "new" passenger one. I put around 40k miles on it without issues then when the car died, I took it off and sold it. Same quality as a parts store unit without having to mess with core charges. Any axles at Autozone/advanced/Napa are made in China.

I'm not your buddy, and I don't intend to be. The last time I held an axle when I was price shopping for an axle on my last Accord, I looked the one over at Napa, and guess what... it was made in China. Even the packaging it was in said so.Of course, this was almost 4 years ago too. The internet beat Napa's price by $40ish dollars even after shipping so I went that direction. But don't get me wrong, I do love shopping at Napa.
