whenever I turn left or sometimes right, my front left wheel will click. its a 93 silverado z71 with 252,000 miles

 

CV joints more than likely, but hard to say without actually hearing it

 

time for a new cv axle. cv joint is bad.

 

The cv boot on the driver side looks new. I bought the truck back in March.

About 3 months ago, I kept getting this clunk sound whenever I would hit a bump and sometimes it would hit randomly. And then ONE day I went to a muddy field and I put the truck in 4 hi and backed into some mud on the shoulder of the road. As I was backing up, there was a loud snap (this was even before I entered the muddy field to off road). I threw the truck in 2 hi and drove forward and everything seemed to be fine. I went back through the mud field in 4 hi and everything was going good. I went through some pretty rough ruts though and alot of bumps. Half way through I got out and checked both front wheels, and I noticed that my driver side front sway bar end link was broken. So this may have been what snapped?

It seems like that ever since this snapped, I've been hearing a click sound coming from that same exact wheel. I've been driving the truck all around for over two months now since then and the clicking is still the same.

 

lol, yea u can bet that is what is making this noise, replace the end link immediately, it is unsafe to drive on the highway with the endlink broken, ill bet it leans into the corners pretty bad huh? the endlinks are cheap
*edit* replace the bushings on the frame mounts too

 

I cant really tell a difference if it leans more or not. The clicking noise is just super irritating. I turned my wheel to the left and jerked it back and fourth really hard to where it shook the truck, and I think I heard the clicking sound, but I cannot pinpoint where its coming from.

It seems that when this end link broke, is when it started clicking.

 

i would change it asap, one time when u goto do a major menouver you wont be as good as it should be, also more tippy
