Think I would be taking a close look at the joints anyway..... If it won't let you turn, I suspect one of the axles has shifted, and if you try and drive it like that, things are gonna break.

Speaking of, bearings... bearings everywhere! Now there's a high pitch whine coming from the front of the engine between 900-1500RPM, around 2k it's gone. Seems to dissipate after the truck warms up enough to transfer heat into the pulleys. I'm hoping for idler pully or even tensioner pulley, as long as it isn't my alternator or water pump. I'll get a recording of this either tomorrow or this weekend, see what you guys think.
You can check the water pump by simply grabbing the fan blades wide apart and rocking them. If there is even the slightest movement, change the water pump. Got mine done about 2 months ago. https://dodgeforum.com/forum/2nd-gen...t-removal.html
