It does that in Neutral?? Sounds like it might be a frozen brake caliper thinking about it...

The axle can LOOK fine that doesn't mean it IS fine. It could be the CV join blew out and is sitting inside the boot in pieces. Or possibly a warped axle? (Though I've not heard of THAT one happening before).
