I think I am answering this question now twice, your diagnosis is correct, the sound you're hearing is your front axles, today they are called CV joints (Centrifugal Velocity joints), in other words like you stated "In the old days this would be a broken universal joint" the axles are a little difficult to replace, if you want to attempt it, I will help you, let me know
