Hi everyone. I've got a 1999 2.0 ES accord which has a noisy front end. I've replaced the upper control arms, stabiliser links, anti roll bar bushes front and rear. New track rod ends and new disks and pads on the front. It's driving me insane now! All those parts were trashed anyway but one noise remains. I noticed that the driveshafts have some play in/out along their axis. Is this normal? They do make a noise when I move them. The clunking occurs on uneven roads below 20mph approximately or going up and down curbs. It also makes a click when going from forward to reverse gears (auto) but not from reverse to neutral back to reverse. I think this is the driveshaft moving making the noise. Could they be toast?
 
Yes possible, also make sure your drop links are in good shape and none of your springs are broken.
