Well I found out what the noise was that was coming from the front axle.
this is what I found when I pulled the axle and hub out.
and this is what was left of the bearing
So I desided it was time to replace the hub I got lucky and found to good hubs with almost new bearings out of an XJ we got in at the junkyard. and desided to go ahead and replace the axle U-Joints while I had it apart. I went and got two of these.
I am going to finnish the install of the front axle repair monday or tuesday. will have pics of the lift I have done also.
