This should help.

Looks like you'll have to pull the axle to work on it, and that I don't know about, but Google is your friend....

Re: 2001 XJ 4x4 4.0l question about a noise

Do you know if the axle will just slide out or do i need to get in to the differential and undo something to get it out? thanks again for all your help!

Re: 2001 XJ 4x4 4.0l question about a noise

I'm pretty sure there's a C clip or something similar in the axle. The only one I've been inside of was a 70's Chrysler so I can't say for sure.

...Although after a Google search I came up with this goody:

So probably the C clip, and you'll need a special tool.
