Pinging in front end?

We have a 97 F350 dually, and when you go over bumps or whatever, any change in terrain, and the driver side "pings", and we cannot seem to locate where its coming from. it seems to be getting worse and worse, truck has just over 100,000 kilometers..

My father has taken the front end apart and says he hasn't seen anything wrong...

Does the axle rotate freely inside the hub?
