      +1. Check the boots where the CVs contact the back side of the rotor. Bet you will find they are torn.

            even at very low speeds you would hear that? this is really my first time of actually hearing a cv shaft if that turns out to be what it is, i have always heard of them being told thats what they would sound like.

            looks like i will have to buy cv shafts then. only thing left to buy would be the struts and it will have a completely new suspension system pretty much. thanks for your input.
