CVs going out?

I guess its time for new CVs. I hear that ticking sound when making right turns.

I have a few Q's

Is it easier buying the whole front Axle kit than just buying the CV joint

Should I stay with OEM or is there a good after market upgrade (or group N kit)

I have a 04 with the 05 Hub conversion. Can I use Axles from the 05?

Looking for a good vender / web site. Any suggestions

First of all that ticking could also be your wheel bearing(thats what mine was). 2nd the axles are much easier to replace as a whole unit and most people use remanufactured axles. I would personally buy an 04 and an 05 axle assuming they are indeed different and return the unused one.
