Re: Clunking noise front drivers side video link attached
The only 2 things I can think of are either a problem in the front differential, or worn spider gears in the cv joint. Is the problem more common going around corners, or does this happen in a straight line too?

Re: Clunking noise front drivers side video link attached
Questions: How many miles on your Jeep?
During the video, could you feel a jerkiness or resistance when turning the wheel and making the noise? Can you turn the tire when 4wd is engaged? If so agree with a stripped gear. Is the noise coming from the hub/wheel area or the differential area? It definitely sounds like from your description that it lasts longer definitely indicates a failing part. It could even be a bearing; next time you drive somewhere, compare the temperatures of the front wheels. If the side making the noise is hotter, then that would point me toward the bearing.

Re: Clunking noise front drivers side video link attached
just straight, doesn't do it going backwards, i can put it in 4wd and no problems. and it seems only to happen when its wet outside. im going to put new wheel hubs on ( i have 350k on my rig) so while im doing that i might just replace the u joints as well
