Probably CV joint...if you search this forum for CV joint, I am sure you will get lots of threads or maybe someone had it bookmarked and will post here for you.

....search function using the words "CV" and "Joint" and user name of "Unicron". I you don't get many hits, research with the user name "Phantom"

They are two in the same users, and user accounts. I know he had a big write up about the CV joint issue.
