Default RE: FRONT AXLE U-JOINT???

It' not really a UV, I'd call it more of a CV, but in a 4X4 yes! You have front axels with "joints" on a 4X4 (call them what you will). When one goes bad, it can cause a vibration, expesially in turns and acceleration. It sounds like you had a good evaluation on the malfunction, only it "stimed" you because you didn't understand what you were told.
