    Ok so I have a 2003 gp gt and when I turn wither left or right there us a small clicking behind the wheels. Clicking is on right side when turning left and on left side when turning right and when I go back straight it clicks on more. I did have my sway bar replaced a short while ago if that would cause it? Idk but I want to know. Not really worried. Just really annoying.

    Clicking while turning is usually CV joints in the axles.

    sounds like you need new axles.


    good trick, if you want to piss off your fiend, or someone whos not your friend, get 2 foot long zip ties and zip them around the drive shaft or front axles of the car,,,sounds awesome lol you need like 3 and have the tails offset so they hit at different times, oh good times messing with my friends back in the day.

    Okay, so i got a quote from my local mechanic that i usually go to when i cannot do the job. He gave me a quote for both sides (both sides are clicking and figured i might as well while it is in the shop) for $300 dollars with a warranty. Thats brand new axles and boots. Everything that is needed. Bad price or good?

    thats not to bad, the axles only cost 80 ish each in hand. your shop is paying less than you would, so hes making a easy 150 off you.
