Crawl under each side and grab the axle firmly; you should be able to move it axially about 1", but without any real radial travel. Sometimes this will redistribute the grease in the CV joints and cure noises, and sometimes you can feel something that just isn't right. If the CV joint x ve any holes in them, then at the very least, you need to disassemble the CV joints, relube them and replace the boot.
