Easy job, and yes if it is making a clicking it needs to be replaced because the boot is probably torn and all of the grease is gone

If it clicks when you turn right, It's probably the left one you should look at.

Also, just because the boot is intact visually there can be hairline cracks in the folds that would allow outside air and dirt to enter the boot and damage the bearings and their races. I've also seen where there was no apparent damage to the boot but upon further inspection the bearings were beginning to wear. Check them both though. If you need help or just want someone to do them for you hit me up. I'm in Syracuse and am cheap.

Contact Jack at Jack's Transmissions out in Colorado. While I was visiting Colorado I met up with these guys and had my tranny built and my tcase refreshed. We actually got to talking about axles and whether or not they were salvagable and guess what, they are! Hit him up and he should be able to rebuild them since Mitsubishi sells the axles in a modular configuration meaning you can get the parts and put it back together for way less than an OEM axle.
