    While in the process of replacing a snapped lug stud (thanks Mr. Tire), i came across a noise from the drive shaft/cv axle which I've never heard before when spinning the tire/wheel hub. Here is the link, can anyone help diagnose?

    Possibly related? I also have a loud click/pop from the front end when going over bumps and turning, but is not the same noise as in the video above. I will work on getting a video of this noise if anyone thinks they can help diagnose this too.

    Either a defective worn CV Joint or you have something not fully disengaged in the front differential.
