so i started having an obnoxiously loud squeak coming from my driver's side axle assembly today on my way home from work. it sounds like it's coming from the axle boot closer to the transmission. the half shaft itself seemed to be revolving as well, instead of just rotating. it's definitely not brakes, i had the pads out and it was still squeaking. the entire axle is like $50 so i was thinking about replacing the whole thing, as it seems there's no real way around it anyways.
so, in the interest of saving money, is there anyway to do it at my house and not pay a mechanic? or possibly any other part that could be bad? i was thinking maybe bearings, but like i said, it really doesn't sound like it's coming from the hub.
