Okay thought so sounds like you have a problem with the front axle or front prop or driveshafts CV joints U joints
You need to get it on a lift and inspect all these possible parts.
Acke and driveshaft outer / inner CV joints,
Typical would be the U Joint on the front end of the Drive/Prop shaft Propshaft.
