Check the front diff oil level, and also do you know if you have the one shot grease in the swivels or the oil? Should be one shot since it is a '97, but you never know. If you did any water crossing it could be the bearing grease has been watered down....

Thanks for the leed Joey so went back to the shop that did the service and on futher investigation it turns out that the apprentice toped them with oil .So they have offered to rectify at the next service.Hopefully no damage to bearings.

Glad to hear you found the issue. I hope they have fun cleaning them out and adding the one shot grease.
