Noise from rear when turning to post

[pzappa]

I am having a loud moaning noise from the rear of my jeep grand cherokee when making sharp turns. I also notice some bumpiness as if I am riding on uneven pavement. I afraid this is gonna be bad...Any ideas what might be going on?? TIA

Rear AxleShaft bearings are bad. This is the cause of the noise and vibration.
