Default Grinding on acceleration?

Please watch this video. It is NOT my truck but it's the exact same sound mine is making on acceleration. My truck is an 08 with 75,000km. Help please!

that's what I thought at first too but I read of people changing out their front end and it still not working. For $30 I'm going to try that first

I would have to say its universal joints. They will only make noise under load until they seize up.

There are no universal joints up front. There are CV joints, but they don't make the same noises when they go bad. Usually those will make a clicking noise in sharp turns, and in the case of this truck, would only do that in 4WD since the front axles do not turn in 2WD.
