Default CV Shaft Bad!?

the right front of my car has a roational knocking... or like rubbing when braking or at cruising speeds. definately coming from the right front wheel well. im thinking maybe a cv shaft repair kit? (as i saw in my searching). i put the car in nuetral when slowing down and no knocking... maybe i figured when slowing down in gear ot puts more stress on the CV shaft. so.... any help. or recomendations would be helpful!

( maybe i wont have tocall andbug my nor cal friend anymore hopefully he posts... )
Thanks guys

If it were a blown CV shaft the right side wouldclick on a left turn, if it were the left it would click on a right turn. CV shafts won't make any noise when going in a straight line.
