Your 1991 Toyota Camry cv joint is making a ticking noise when the gear is in drive only?

Check the "boot" for cracks and see if there is any loss of grease. The boot is the rubber housing around the CV Joint. If the boot is damaged, grease has escaped and the CV Joint is making noise, the CV joint must be replaced.

More than likely you have a constant velocity joint going bad, these are on the end of the drive axles that connect to the inside of the front wheels. Sometimes if they are not worn badly the joints can be repacked with grease and new boots installed, but usually it's better to replace them.

Can a cracked CV boot cause noise in the CV joint?

A cracked boot itself won't cause a CV joint to make noise. However, a cracked boot WILL cause the grease to be slung out and allow dirt to enter the CV joint. And a contaminated CV joint that is starved for lubricant WILL eventually start to make noise.

RHS front wheel bearing I would say or RHS CV joint, examine the rubber booths on all cv joints and if yhey are dry they are ok, if they are grease spattered this means that there is a fractured booth and centrifical force will throw the grease out and the cv joint runs without grease thus wearing the ball and socket cv joint. If the boots are dry put some glycerene on a rag and rub into them this keeps them supple and won't crack This could also be a bad wheel bearing. Wheel bearings, when bad, are known to only make noise at certain times, such as when turning.
