^Wow, that's difficult to read lol.
Take a look at the ujoints on the rear driveshaft. Should be zero play and no rust spots.
Pull off the plug on the rear diff and check the fluid condition and level. If the fluid was recently replaced, make sure friction modifier was added.
Make sure your tires are in good condition as well.
As far as noise in the front, get it off the ground and check the ball joints... and check axle joints.
You can buy a ball joint press kit or rent one from auto parts store.
