Quick dumb question.

My front right axle shaft ujoint is totally shot. Like 1/2" of play I'm talking. Replacing them tomorrow.

When turning I get this grinding/popping/feels like TCase is stuck in 4 hi feeling (it's not. I checked.)

Would I feel that ujoint in the wheel like I'm feeling even in 2 hi?

Going to change front and rear diff fluid as well.

Well I would wait until replacing the unis before looking (worrying) too deeply into this....

It's in my nature. Haha. Selling the jeep to one of my brothers mates and id feel awful if something serious resulted from said problem.

I wouldn't be surprised if that is gone after replacing the u-joints...

Ordered u-joints, upper control arms and bushings and brake kit from Rockauto.
If I wreck it now, I can at least start a little parts sale with all the new parts plus the ones I have still waiting to go in. Harmonic balancer, rear shocks, brakelines, oxygen sensors, and soon a new radiator.

If only I could find some wrenching time...
