like EASILY.. and it shakes like crazy..

LCA or CV?

gotta get this fixed now so any info is greatly appreciated

 

whats the situation when u are driving it. any skaking..vibration, knocking ??

 

shakes and vibrates (same thing?) like crazy... not so much knocking. im swapping the axle..

 

its supposed to turn easily.

is there movement in the hub?

if you take the wheel off, can you move the hub without moving the whole knuckle? if so your wheel bearing is probably shot.

 

check the ball joints and tie rods also

 

Joint is leaking grease pretty bad.. axle nut is off.. tranny is drained.. but now the castle nut is being a pain in the ***.. doesnt really matter cause i dont have the new axle but whatever ill pick it up tomorrow and let the pb do its work
