I thought it might be cv but it sounds like its coming from the ferther under like the diff ? when you stand by the wheels and listen

Could be a uj on the way out,only noticable under load.Jack up one front wheel,grab front propshaft and push pull and turn looking for play in any trunion,also look for a dry rusty joint that may be seized although this usualy shows up as vibration at speed.

Hi Mate,

I had this problem not so long ago,
everyone said it was CV Joints, Turned out it was my transfer box , i drained the oil outta the box and had handfulls of metal and even whole teeth.

Hi again right so far i stripped out down to the cv joint and the only damage i found was the brass washer had shattered which in turn had caused some minor damage from the play but going to replace the washer and seals and see how it goes and let you know fingers crossed lol
