it''s probably the wheel hub bearings. Usually the differentials will last a good 200K miles easy if you keep them oiled. Wheel bearings are a common issue on high mileage vehicles, and easily replaced.

wow... I''ve never heard of that happening to any vehicle. broken axles, shredded gears, broken teeth, etc, but never a chipped axle. Hope it doesn''t cost you too much to fix it.
