I'm gonna say this, I don't know, but that WAV file sound does not sound like suspension or a bearing. From what I've read and experienced they all pop or slop. That sound like splines slipping. I would think one of your CV's is slipping in the splines (or not in) or the front drive shaft is slipping.

I would think you could remove the front drive shaft and take it for a drive. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong. but I would try it.
