Default Need advise replacing Steering/Suspension components

I am in the midst of replacing my c.v. joints and was told that anytime you replace them you should also replace the axle assemblies. Is this true? I have the crackling, popping noise only when I turn, not when I accelerate straight forward.

Default well you can get the whole thing (complete axle) for $200 shipped from raxles.

I think it's a better deal then buying the joints (inner and outer)yourself and popping them on and all that mess.
