    thanks for replying. I checked it out, I got a passenger side axle at NAPA tomorrow. I'm 99% sure it wasn't my transfer case and yes I meant to say my CV joint, not the boot. Mine must be stripped because you can see it slipping and occasionally grabbing. I will install that this week and go from there. Still waiting on my OME suspension kit to arrive. I still yet don't understand my shocks looking fine but making nasty noises and hitting hard. So I can't wait to lift and have new shocks/springs this weekend.

    Have you read on here about the very small distance between the rear bump stops and the axle causing the slamming and hitting hard?
    Virtually all VXs are that way. New shocks don't really change it that much, but cutting the bump stops in half, like myself and about 4 others have done dramatically improved the ride. Your planned lift and springs may also affect it.
