Default knocking in rear axle

Finally, this is the last problem that I have with my talon.
When the car is moving every couple of rotations the rear axle makes a knocking noise. When I had the car jacked up I checked it. The noise is coming from the passenger rear area but the axle piece there isnt broken (from a visual inspection)
Any ideas on what this noise might be?

Are you sure it's the passenger rear axle and not the hub or brakes?

yeah, it sound very possible it could be an axle crack, especially if it intesifies when you gas it around corners. Also check the strut, shocks, and coils to see if that's not the issue
