Default Knocking from Front End...

Hello All,

My car as of late is knocking on the passenger front side when Im accelerating. Im guessing that it is my CV Shaft? Would it have anything to do with the Transmission? Im driving a '91 Accord Wagon, 5spd. How hard is it to replace a CV shaft? Any info would be super awesome.

Thanks!

Will the CV Shaft bust off if I left it? I only plan to have this car for another 3-4 months. But I dont want to lose the CV when Im driving down the highway.

I doubt I would sell this car for anything but parts. Honestly, I doubt its going to last much longer than 6 months. I just dont want to spend a fortune on a dying car...
