hey guys it was the axleshaft... fixed no problems since put like 2-4k on it still holding good... as far as my drive shaft im not really sure.. im not sure if it was from wheeling or just the fact of the lift but im getting a very weird clunking sound from what seems to be under my feet. it is driving fine no problems what so ever in 2 and 4 wheel drive... i just have no clue what the sound is im going to take it to the dealer some time soon. need a bunch of stuff the recal also my rear main seal and a good alingment. hope they can find whats causeing the noise

sounds like your driveshaft might be taking a crap, is it like a grabing clunk noise, then it lets loose??

thats what my drivehshaft did before it took a shit. look at your driveshaft boot, if its torn, there should be black greese all over..

I upgraded to JE Reel shafts, no more noise! and its smooth again.

i didnt really notice any grease there is the clunking but what do you mean by let lose... also as a side note when my jeep is parked and in 2wheel drive should i have any movement in my front drive shaft?? like should i be able to move it in little turns right and left???
