Well, I've been getting the pops that everyone says is the axle nuts not being torqued enough. I stopped by the Honda Dealership to see what they'd charge for 5 min of work and it was $50
.
If anyone local (Cary would be awesome) has a 36mm socket and a breaker bar I could use, I'd be indebted forever. Really don't want to spend $30 in tools that I already have (didn't bring much with me since I moved to an apartment).

Hey Jack (damn i actually remembered your name
)
I have the tools to do it including a 250lb Torque wrench. I have a right rear bearing going bad and I am just waiting on the parts to come in to do the work, should be here Tuesday. It is not a bad idea if you are going to do this to just get new axle nuts and change them, the threads can get stretched out some over time and it is hard to get them to tighten down enough. I think the stealership has them in stock for like $5, it is the one they use on all of there cars.
Anyway just let me know what your schedule is and we can set something up.

it makes it really easy if you can take the center caps off your rear wheels first
