89 Cherokee Laredo, I started the jeep and went to drive away when i noticed a loud clunking. My first guess was the u-joints, so i took out the front driveshaft and thought i needed to replace the u-joints. So i still drove the jeep w/no front driveshaft and everything was quiet until i went on the highway. Then i heard some rattling and clunking again but not as loud so i stopped and checked the axle and found that the yoke on the axle wiggled a little. This seems to be the problem, but what is it? Pinion bearing? what needs to be fixed and would it be an easy job or should i bring it to a mechanic? I'm ok w/the tools but i'm no pro. it's a old jeep w/lots of miles and i don't have alot of cash. please advise
