In most cases if the CV joint is bad you will hear a clicking sound when turning the wheel & moving. If it's a wheel bearing you will hear like a roaring sound that will increase as your speed increases. Hope this helps....

a loud pop is either cv axle or ball joint so i would try ball joints or could be a-arm bushings also
SOURCE: wheel bearings & u-joint
if you have never done a hub assembly it would probably take about an hour or two for the first then considerably quicker and those usually run 300 to 400 each u joints about the sam time and around 10 to 40 each

having the same type of noise in mine. I dont think you had to change the axles because though it may sound like it they were probably ok. I have been trying to fing the part for mine that it sounds like you need. It's the transmission, there is a aftermarket part that doesn't cure the problem but allows you to get more use out of the car. It is a sleeve that goes in the tranny were the axle seal is and keeps the axle strait so it doesn't bang around in the tranny but unfortunatly I have not been able to find anywhere that has it anymore. still looking. this problem was common to that year car and I talked to a transmission shop and thats where I found out about this problem after I did everthing you did with the axles and the bearing and he told me these cars all had this problem, sorry I cant help you find the part but at least you have an idea of the problem
