It could still be a bad CV joint.
YOU MIGHT CONSIDER GETTING THE WHEEL BEARINGS CHECKED, IF IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S COMING FROM THE WHEELS (PARTICULARLY WHEN YOU ARE TURNING). THE TENSIONER WHEEL AND BOGEY WHEELS ON THE SERPENTINE BELT (FAN BELT) SOMETIMES DO THAT, TOO.
Try putting on the emergency brake & turning the wheels one way while turning the key. If that dont work try turning the wheels the other way..if your parked on a steep hill you might even have to put a brick in front of the tires and let it roll a bit to remove some pressure from the wheels............hope it works
Viscuous coupling in the transfer case could be going bad.
Wherever wheels are rolling,No matter what the load,The name that's known is FirestoneWhere the rubber meets the road
GENERALLY, WHEN A FRONT WHEEL DRIVE VEHICLE SHUDDERS WHEN YOU ARE ACCELERATING, IT IS ONE OF THE INSIDE CV JOINTS THAT IS OUT. THERE ARE DRIVE SHAFTS THAT COME OUT OF THE TRANSMISSION, AND THEY HAVE BOOTS ON THE INSIDE CLOSE TO THE TRANSMISSION, AND BOOTS ON THE OUTSIDE CLOSE TO THE WHEELS. THE INSIDE BOOTS AND JOINTS TEND TO SHUDDER UPON ACCELERATION WHEN THEY ARE OUT. HOPE THIS HELPS.
CV joints are going bad... about 70 buck$ a peice. Right and left
sounds like a front wheel drive with bad cv joints, which are your drive shafts going to both front wheels.
Answer Ball joints which are located behind the front wheels. Do not ignore it. Your wheel can actually break off while driving. Have it looked at ASAP.
The front axle is not disengaged OR the front u-joints are starting to fail.
Ussually it's the ball joints and it's ussually only on one side of the vehicle. Most noticable when turning the wheels.
If it sounds like it's from one of the front wheels, you may have a worn out CV joint.

The truck will "wander" going down the road with no movement to the steering wheel. Jack the wheels off the ground and try to move them as of they we turning a corner. If you get movement in one wheel and not the other, ball joints are shot.
Most of them do have cv joints at the front wheels.
Have your ball joints checked. Sounds like your ball joint dust seals have been comprimised and dirt has entered the grease area and displaced the grease. CAUTION !!! Have this checked ASAP!! The longer you wait the more metal wear on the ball joints which could lead to the joint popping out of socket...which means loss of steering due to one of the wheels collasping.
It sounds like you have a bearing prob. replacing and repacking with grease should take care of your proublem.
It has two universal joints (u-joints) in the driveshaft that powers the rear wheels.
