Default rattling noise on osf of cossie 4x4

hi people i dont know if any of you have had the same fault. When im driving along i can here a rattling noise coming from the osf wheel area. There is on play in the wheel bearings and the seem to be spinning freely. Sometimes when turning right the noise is worse. Ive also retightened the wheel bearing too. Its starting to piss me off now,an help will be nice.

mines pass side , like a constant ticking only very slight , cv grease all over wheel so i think mine is a cv joint with no grease in , also knocking on bumps & needs a new shocker on same side so i'm hoping to get that sorted as soon as i get it out the paint shop next week .
hoping it'll be finally sorted no more spending on it then till winter .

gaz .
