you could have shagged hubs, try jacking one front wheel at least and lock it in and spin it with your hands and see if the cv spins with it, might not be the problem but its an easy place to start looking

you might not need new ones (if it turns out that they are the problem) could be as simple as the spring is not locking them in, if it is the hubs take it to a mechanic and it may well be a heap cheaper to fix rather than replace

ok thanks mate

another way to check them is to jack up both sides and lock the hubs is and crawl underneath (dont forget the vehicle stands) and turn the drive shaft from the transfer case to the front diff and see if the wheels move
