1998 V70 CV joint clicking ? V70-XC70

My 1998 V70 5 speed NA with 130K miles has started clicking when the car turns right. The clicking is coming from the front passenger side and occurs when the steering wheel is turned even slightly right. No clicking when going straight or turning left. Over the past month the clicking has become more noticeable so I think it is time to figure out the problem and fix it.

From other posts I suspect the passenger side CV joint is failing. The drive axle looks original and both boots are OK. Have CV joints been known to fail at 130K miles even though the boots are not leaking ?

Thanks,

Mike
