Popping sounds are usually a cv or maybe tranny. The length of the axle depends on what rear trailing arms you have. |

Does the axle float smooth in the joints. Grab the axle a wiggle it in and out from the wheel towards the transaxle. If the axle has good movement then just pull the axle out and measure the length. Its not gunna be the axle itself, its gunna be a cv joint. You can also set an angle finder on the top of the axle with it bolted in and check the angle. Depending what cvs you have determines the max angle you can have. |

The best way to measure for an axle is to remove your axle and cv's, compress your suspension so that the stub axle and drive flange are level with each other, then measure from the inside (deepest point) of the stub axle cup to the inside (deepest point) of your drive flange. Get the axle that is as close to this measurment without equaling it. example= if you measure 18-7/8" get a 18-3/4" axle. |
