There is a thumping/knocking sound comming from the front right side of my 95 disco. I was wondering if it could be that my hub has gone bad.

Hub is a solid piece of cast stell - nothing really to go bad:

When does it happen - all time or when turning sharply, etc?

Could be:

1)CV joint
2)wheel bearings
3)bad radius arm or panhard bushings

The sound is all the time. I only thought it was a hub, because my more mechanically inclined friend said that his jeep made the same sound when, his hub went bad.
