My front right axle.. blew? There's all these greasy crap on my wheel and theres this continuous thudding sound when i drive. The thudding gets faster as my speed increases. Ive included pictures below. I've never done any "under-the-car" job so i'm seeking help. Is it a possible DIY for an average joe? or should i take it to a shop. And also does anyone know how much it would cost me for the parts. Part numbers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks guys.

Jack that side into the air and grab the wheel and wiggle it. If it has any play in it you'll need to replace that wheel bearing... But typically wheel bearings make a humming or squeaking. Is that axle still in the transmission? Did you pull on the joints in the axle at all?
