Are those the original CVs?
That pictured drive flange looks stripped

If diff lock is not engaged, would torque be trying to take the past of least resistance in the front and spinning the spline on the wheel where it can break loose?
Draw a line with a paint marker on both hub flanges/axles.

Drive Flange as first suspected (and hoped).
Driver's side. Axle spinning away inside of it.
Sounded sort of like a mechanical pencil sharpenerLol Mr spinny there
LOL damn that thing is stripped to hell, glad it's nothing serious. Probably need a new CV axle as well.
Wow I have never seen a drive flange stripped that bad, that’s incredible. Glad you’re equipped and capable to repair it yourself. That would be several thousand $$$ at a dealer. Hey if you have access to a CNC get those flanges milled so you’ll have a trail fix for a broken front diff
Odd that it would strip so badly, I agree. Also NO indication previous to the incident that anything was wrong.
