Hello BHAMDOC1973,
I would leave it together, jack the front of it up, turn the key on so the steering wheel is unlocked and put your hands on the passenger side at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock and push the tire in like it would be if you were turning left. Once you have it pushed in rotate the tire and see if you can see the axle popping or moving.
Unfortunately, I don't have a lot of information for this vehicle so if you could take some pictures of the axle in a couple of different spots, I can help you better. For example, where the snap ring is, where it goes into the differential, where it goes into the hub. That would help me to help you. Sometimes with vehicles like Land Rover and other higher end vehicles information is hard to find.
I am adding a picture of a passenger front axle. Can you tell me if this is what yours looks like?
Does it bind at all if you are parked and turn the wheels back and forth lock to lock?
What made you go directly to the passenger side axle? For instance, what symptom led you to that part of the vehicle?
Does it happen when you turn only left or does it happen when you turn either left or right?
Finally, does it seem to happen more in a parking lot or lower speed turn or all the time no matter what the vehicle speed is?
If you could take a moment and answer these questions for me as well as add some more you think might help, it will help me understand your exact issue and help you better.
I want to make sure I provide you with the best help possible but just need a little more information.
Thank you,
Brendon
