After having all this work done just 4 weeks ago I am now hereing a clicking noise when I am turning and backing up or pulling forward. I am assuming this is an axel. Is this not something they should have caught when all the other repairs were being done?

First off, please tell us what repairs were completed. And we need to know what your complaint was to have the repairs completed. A clicking noise can be a cv joint, brake pads not tight. Also need to know if noise is from front or rear. Sorry about replying with questions, but we need this information to help you.

It all started with a clunking noise in front and a loud humming noise from the rear. Upper ball joints were replaced, rear diff seal replaced, rear diff fluid replaced, front sway bar bushing replaced, front sway bar link replaced, alignment done
I think the clicking noise is coming from passenger side front.

There is a real possibiloity the CV joint is starting to fail. The clicking on turns is indicitative of the joint starting to fail. You might want to jack it up and safely support it, then look for anything that may be mis-aligned and touchi9ng something. If all is clear and tight, I would venture the CV joint. It is possible the brake pad is a little loose and causint the noise also. Noises are really hard to diagnose without being able to hear them, but we will try as best we can. Keep us [posted.
