Default Harsh grinding------SOLVED

So went on a road trip this weekend and it seems every time I get a lot of vibration on the front end (think like riding the rumble strips on Highway)I hear shortly after hard metal on metal grinding sound coming from my front end he usually comes in sets of Threes And then stops I crawled into the truck the only thing I could see is on my passenger wheel assembly it looks like there's a small leak of something around I don't know if it's the Hub or what but it's only thing different that I can see, I heard this once before and wrote it off as a fluke because you know

picture is of the only difference under the truck

Does the noise go away if you put it in 4X?

I don't have 4a and have been running on dry Payment so I don't know, I thought about trying it with the issue other members have had and that being a diagnostic aid but didn't want to risk damage

I'm having the same problem. The dealer says they replace a lot of actuators. They replaced both of mine and the passenger side one is still not right after a second try. Now it has a loud popping noise. Hope to get everything ready so I can pick it up on Tuesday. All the death on the passenger side had been broken off.
