A long time ago, I started to get a knocking sound when I accelerated from a stop. At first I was worried but far from home there were no other problems so I just got use to it. I have been driving it like this for some time now. Now its time to fix it. Sounds like my axle shaft is knocking into hub. I just pulled the Inbd CV and the C clip is on the axle. Before I pull the Outbd CV, I thought I would ask what I should be looking for. Any thoughts?

I guess I don't understand. From your description, as I *thought* I understood it - it sounds like your spindle nut is not fully tightened. Again, I might be off base with what you are describing.
