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 agree with the repacking and also check the CV in general...all bolted up OK ? My friend has a VW T2a where we installed an IRS trans in the lowering project....same symptom...CV bolts were loose and came more loose after some miles driving.
