CV Axle

1️⃣ Getting Started...
Hi, New to the group, I have a 2017 Tacoma SR DC, Bought it brand new 4 years ago, I do a lot of moderate trails.

The truck has 70k miles on it, I hear a clicking sound at a very low speed going forward and reverse, I believe its the CV Axle. Looking at the boot on the driver side it appears the cushion part (i am no mechanic) is blown out, Nonetheless I cant find a genuine replacement from Toyota for it but I see multiple aftermarket ones. I am a bit weary in that regard but willing if anyone else has used them. Also, should I replace the Rear CV if I am going to replace the front?

I also need to replace my Tie rods, Anyone have any experience in this as well? Would love some input.

Thanks
 
Click. Needle bearing? I think that could click. What do you mean by blown out? Like bulging or torn?
Swap to bushing?

Did you lift it?
