I have a 09 1500 4x4. 105,000 mi. Clicking noise in lt. frt. Only here it going very slow when pulling into parking spot. Is it possibly a cv joint in the axle ? thanx for any input.

Pretty good chance that is exactly what it is. Does it do it turning tight both ways? CV usually only does it one direction. Will click when turning to the weak CV side, so right turn click, buggered right CV, especially when they are just starting to go.

It isn't guaranteed to be that, could also be the ujoints if truck is full time 4x4, or a bunch of other things. That is why I asked if it only clicks turning left hard. Check for cracks in the boots, if water and dust got in it doesn't take long to lunch a CV.

If it does it turning right too I would check out the other stuff before the CV joint.
