Default STRANGE noise coming from.......front end????

ok guys, so this happened yesterday morning and today around noon. I was in my truck getting ready to leave both times moving about 2-3 mph and i hear what sounds like air escaping and then a loud clunk somewhere under my truck, but sounds like front end. It sounds like its coming from the drivers side but not sure. What would be causing something like this?

Do you still have 4WD could be the air lines for the 4 wheel drive ( the actuator on the front of the axle).Just a guess.When you say air leaking or escaping that is all I got or losing air in a tire.
