Default New Guy. What do you think?

Has 93k on it. Fully loaded inside. Only thing now is i hear some noise coming from underneath the jeep. When i balanced the tires 2 days ago i wiggled the tires from the 12-6 position and no play and then 3-9 and hardly any play. Is there a common problem with the driveline i should be worried about or more about the bearings going out?

Plans- Some Dana 60s w/ lockers and 5.13 gears, A bumper w/ winch mount, Rear bumper with tire carrier, 38s, Full or assist hydro steer, maybe 4 link it, relocation of the spare/fuel tank to get more clearance from the rear, roll cage ( not sure inner or exo yet) , Hi-lift jack, maybe a roof rack, some engine mods, and idk what else yet lol. Im not going to be doing anything right now and if i do it will be stuff to get some better gas mileage until i deploy and both my truck and jeep are paid off. Once that is good ill start buying parts and having them shipped to where my truck is stored to work on it when i get back.
