Default Cv axle replacement but still runs like poo

Ello S bros! Needs some help with what's going on with my s. So changed the cv axle (rear driver side) it was gone . Torqued errthang to spec but am still hearing a clanking sound. Metal on metal like, as if a bolt is jumping around best way I can describe. It's in the rear where it first began before I changed the cv. The sound is coming from that same side I changed it. I saw some of my bushing on that side and look a lil bad. Wondering if it's my wheel bearings? Just change the bushing on that side and I'm good? The sound would happen on low speeds. Before the change it would happen at low speeds then go away. Help?!

Here's a video of what the sound is btw. It is dependent on the speed the car moves and happens in reverse or in a turn as well.

(Not my video) is a video I found with the same sound although ours sounds like the first few seconds consistently
