INNER CV?

> I'm getting a light knocking noise while driving. I thought it was the
right

noise
> problem before) off a spare driveshaft, but the noise came back after a
few

>
> Noise is there under acceleration and deceleration, in neutral, clutch in
or
> out.
>
> Noise increases on right turns, but is still there when going straight
> ahead.
>
> Noise stops if the brakes are applied - even if I feather the brakes with
my
> left foot.

> With the car jacked up, there is about 1/4" - 3/8" of free play at the
> circumference of the tyre before I see the drive flange move. The other
side
> appears to have neglible play. I checked the brakes as well and the anti
> rattle clips are all there & nothing seems to be loose.
