Re: Loud noise...need a second opinion
Yeah I've got one of those magnetic camber/caster gauges that you can stick onto the hub/rotor. I'm able to set the camber back to what it was whenever I have to take out my camber bolts, but I didn't know what to do for toe.

Re: Loud noise...need a second opinion
measureing tape method works reasonably well. There are lots of bolt on toe plates on the market to make it easier to measure. OR you could just build a pair of toe plates out of flat bar or angle iron.

Re: Loud noise...need a second opinion
Could this be my problem as well.
We think its the passenger side CV joint. Just because its hard to hear it is the thumping noise in the back ground. At 3:34 i turn on the highway and you can hear it. Till then its just the usual sound of the car.

Re: Loud noise...need a second opinion
Man I had the same problem, clicking. Turns out my dentures were cracked on the right side but it sounded like a brake issue. Insurance paid to have new ones made.

I know you believe that you understand what you think I said but I'm sure you realize that what you heard is not what I meant.

Re: Loud noise...need a second opinion
I could not really make out the sound you're describing in the video. In general, if you hear clicking when the wheel is turned it's usually a CV joint. A "whirring" noise is usually a wheel bearing.
I would start by removing the axle and inspecting it carefully. If the boots are cracked and so on that's a pretty good sign that they've been unlubed for a while and are likely to be pretty worn. They are pretty easy to replace as well. The bearings are a little bigger pain in the arse.
