Click/Clunk nosie from rear rght wheel
I have a noise coming from the rear right wheel (I think that is where)...it is a loud clack/click sound and it only occurs when I am in reverse or when I am turning to the right...I did notice today that the rubber boot by the wheel is completely torn.
Any ideas?

Bet you a dollar to a donut bad cv or dirty cv since boot torn! When in reverse makes noise is usually sign of cv wear. Bearings in cv are used to going forward,then when put in reverse,slack because of wear either on inboard or wheel side cv can cause noise. COULD be wheel bearing,but probably not. First time I repaired one,I replaced bearing thinking is was the culprit,because both cv boots were ok and not torn,but still click clacked in reverse! Ended up being plunging joint. Check before you buy parts that are not needed. Good luck. Hope just cleaning and boot replacement helps.

Just remove boot clamp,hit sharply with hammer on edge of cv,should come off shaft (has retaining ring on end of shaft that locks cv in) CLEAN cv from dirt and grit,regrease bearings and cage in cv,install new boot,align cv to where you feel splines line up with shaft and use deadblow hammer or wood block and hammer,knock back on to where circlip seats (can reuse circlip,but best to replace. Use rest of grease in boot kit and squeeze into boot,install clamps. CHECK hub bearing while at it to see if has rough spots or feels worn. Usually wont make noise on lift with no weight,just when a load is on it. If hub bearing good and cv not damaged but still makes noise,could be slack in cv asy that was repaired or plunging joint at gearcase making noise. Good luck let us know
