After the last big hillclimb, I limped mine back to the trailer, making a gawdawful grinding noise that I was afraid was my front axle, finally giving up.

Pulled it apart this week, and didn't find anything horrible. Test drove it again today, with the front shafts pulled, and it still did it.

Started looking at the rear axle instead, and discovered that I had picked up a rock the size of a football, and got it lodged between my fenderwell, leaf spring, and left rear tire.
