will it wobble and grind when its not in 4wheel? or just in 4wheel.

i would take off the hub and check to make sure all components are there and not worn or missing first of all.

no the 4 wheel drive is not on and i will go over some rough road or bump, and the wheel will start to wobble and thump, then either coming to a stop or it smooths it self out and we are fine again....
