Thank yall
Thanks again for all the input I have been off the grid working with a family friend in Tennessee building a cabin for them and had no access to Internet or cell service. I was told that the attached image is what I need and I have someone to help me install it.

Exactly. Sometimes it will show you some rust or a bad seal. But most of the time it is hard to tell when the truck is sitting in park. There's just not enough movement/travel to properly diagnose the joint.
I just did mine again a couple months ago. I did a video of the noise it was making.

They don't all get like this.... This one was the simplest to diagnose because the cups were SHOT. This was how my Expy was when it was given to me. This actually caused a t-case to grenade on it.

It it just started yesterday. Where should I start looking? How is the drivability in the meantime?
