HELP! Front Axle

[CherokeeGuy42]

Ok I started noticing that my front passenger side axle was making a grinding noise. Then the other day I noticed that the tire was leaning top end in and bottom out. I figured it was because I needed an alignment so I wasn't too worried. Well I was switching tires today and realized once the tire was off the ground that I could wobble the tire and watch the end of the axle move around. But when I spin the tire I can see the front driveshaft move. I'm assuming I didn't break the front axle, but maybe it's u-bolts or something? Anyone have an Idea? I kinda need help as soon as possible. Also is it going to be that hard to fix? Thanks alot.

It's either a bad bearing assembly (hub) or bad balljoints. You have to look at the steering knuckle while you're shaking the tire to see where exactly the movement is coming from. We can help more when you narrow down the movement.
