Knocking noise front right suspension KZN-130

[_MUNTER_]

Hey team, I have a 93 KZN-130 and I took her out and shes taken a beating to the front right wheel, either the ball joint or diff?? and now theres a heavy knocking noise and it feels like im going over a speed bump, but its only when im in 4WD it seems to be worst.
Any help appreciated, and im going to apologize in advance because im new to 4WDing. cheers!

another place to look is the shock mounts.. I threw a rubber out of one once... sounded like I had run over a dwarf with a hammer....

Yup top and bottom....

[_MUNTER_]

yeah should be the CV coz its only in 4WD it happens

Also the double cardon is on the front driveshaft so will only make noises when in 4wd as the pain comes on.. currently thinking i have this problem..

[_MUNTER_]

yeah thats the one big

the other thing to check that can cause knocking is in the hub itself there is bronze bushes that become egg shaped. mine started knocking in 4wd only as there was load but after a while they really wore out and it happened when 4wd wasn't engaged so i replaced them, put free wheeling hubs on and they haven't worn out yet.
