I have a 2001 XJ with stock axles. While in Moab I was climbing a deep sand hill with lots of holes. While in 1st Gear in 4 Low I had a little to much speed and caught a whole wrong. My front tires popped about 8 inches off the ground and when they landed I heard a loud "clunk." It appeared to be fine but than I realized that when the car was in 4wd Hi or Low the axle sounded like it was "slipping" or "clicking" when I turned/went uphill/put torque on it. Also, in 2wd it is fine except for when I make a sharp turn I hear a series of very soft clicks.
I heard it could be my u joint but I visually examined it and it seems fine, as do the hubs. I also heard it could be the ball joint in my axle or that I could have broken a couple of teeth in my axle.
ANY IDEAS?
If so, any gues on prices and if an average guy could fix it himself.
Thanks again
