Does your 2003 have two standard U joints on the front driveshaft? Or is it
like my 2001 with a CV joint on the driveshaft where it meets the transfer
case?
Mine had the CV joint fail, and made noise like that. The bad news, if you
have the CV joint style driveshaft, is that it's not repairable. You have to
buy a new driveshaft. I replaced mine and got one with a standard U joint
instead of the CV so I won't have to deal with that again.
Alternately, your noise could be in the transfer case, or even possibly the
front differential or CV axles.
