Default Rear Axle Nut Fixed

i had the infamous popping/cracking noise coming from the rear axle upon acceleration. i have an 02. i took the service note to the dealer and they had it fixed for $40 within 15 minutes, and the problem is solved. this is the best experience i've had with Honda's service. maybe it's because i talked to the mechanic directly.

Damn, I think I need to get this dont too.

It sounds like those little wire parking things that used to come on old school cadillacs. Metal clinching
Cant you just tighten the existing nuts?

Or its a must to replace them?
