Installing a fresh axle nut has never worked for me, the clicks would always come back after 1 event or even just starting from a steep hill. I never notice the clicks after the event (probably due to heat expansion), but on the next day.

The clicks started after (2), about 6-7 track days since the DSS axles were installed. (1) happened on my first track day on DSS axles.

I had the axle seals replaced at a shop, I don't think they re-installed the entire axle, just popped out the part that was inserted into the diff. The seals were replaced due to diff fluid leaking.

Thanks. Replacing the axle is a last resort option for me due to cost and wait time.
