Front wheel bearing. Feel the hubs after you drive, if one of them is warm...

I had an axle cause that, it would do it randomly, but more often when brakes were applied. It would almost rip the wheel from my hands. My wife refused to drive it a week or so later, the axle sploded at the tax office, drove it home in 4H, put in a new axle and it never did it again.

 

if you have a clicking axle, I would suspect it first. I think it happens when one of the ball bearings falls out of a broken race and the axle is able to move to that side causing the wobble-jerk

makes sense one of my front cv shafts and i think one of the back ones is going bad to. doesnt help im sure that the axle boots exploding apart awhile back hasnt helpe the cause at all

then watch out for sharp turn reverse's lol, I was reversing into a parking spot, turned to lock and began to let out the clutch and it sounded like a grenade going off it literally shot the shaft out and scattered the race (in piecies) and 6 large ball bearings all over their parking lot. I had to shove the shaft back into the cup to drive it home.

Check your transmission mounts.
