  1. Axles on Subarus' are Quite forgiving. If you hear the click, click, it is time to replace the unit. Generally, the outside boot has deteriated allowing all the grease to blow out of the joint, and after a period of time, the joint gathers dirt, mud, and grit, which wears on the constant volocity joint (CV). The axle on our type of cars, (unlike any others that I know about), are held into the tranmission housing and output shafts, by a drift pin. Unless you have an extreme situation with the half shaft housing, (which I have never seen), changing the axle. Inspect the left axle. If the boot is dry or damaged, replace, or service at the same time. First, be certain that it is not a trans issue. Sub' axle are usually heard only with the wheels turned to almost full while rolling. If you hear this groaning or chatter in a strait line, you may need to investigate a little more before investing. Understand, we will never see what we put into these cars, but we do it out of love. When you get this message, please reply. I hope this helps! I have 2 85's. I know them well.
