Eh. Do you AutoX or track? My CV and diff blew up on the track last weekend after the deadly clicking for several weeks on the street. It'll take more than the axle nut. Several people have reported the clicking continuing after re-torquing. The culprit is the axle angle, it just is not up to the task of hard corners and acceleration.
The only solutions I can find are diff risers or bushing inserts. I wish we had shaft spacers like the S2k's.
Another piece of advice. Don't use lowering springs like I did. They increase the angle and don't provide much more resistance to axle travel than the stock springs. If you go lower, use coils to prevent the axles from reaching as extreme of angles.
