Well thanks guys, I performed my own similar test this morning. I put all fours up off the ground and had my father in law outside the car (for obvious reasons, ha ha). Anyway, yep, it seems to be making noise from the other side, I just diagnosed the side wrong. Wasn’t a complete loss, however, because after 145,000 miles the tie rod end and ball joint looked like they could use some help!
One important note that I thought of right before I got the car in the air is that for this type of car its really important to get all four wheels up if you’re going to diagnose like I did, because the 4x4 feature is automatic or full time. When the front wheels are up and spinning the computer will think the car is slipping and put the four wheel feature on and knock it off the jack stands if you only have the front wheels up! Anyway, it worked out perfectly, thanks again for the replies! Now all I have to do is rip it all apart… again.
