i've had a similar drama as of late simple to fix though. the circlip on the end of the cv axle falls off from time to time. mines done it a couple of times now. creates a similar sound to what you have described, should be a simple fix. good luck with it.
only other thing to check is that the circlip or the washers between the hub nuts aren't chewed out. this was the cause for my axle falling apart. you may need to obtain new ones. can't remember the exact thickness off hand. it will help to stop it happening again.

Hey guys, i eventually figured out the problem, i needed to take the outer part off you know the bit where you switch from 2x4 to 4x4 Duh! glad i didnt try to prize it off, i would have been pushing against the circlip, anyway, plenty of slack in the bearing and very little grease, it obviously hadn't been done in years, so have given a good coating of grease (of course i cleaned it first) and i'll see how it runs, but will probably check over the drivers side this weekend just to be on the safe side, suprisingly easier than i expected, Thanks Again, will let you know how i get on with the other side..
