Land Rover Repair: My rover is falling apart, cv boot, ball joints

Question
Hello again John,
Thanks for all your advice, in the last email i sent i asked you about a knock when i turn my wheel and you said it might be my ball joints or my cv boot and if it was my cv i would eventtually have to lock in my diff just to get it to move. So i was wondering i lock in my diff and drive and it still makes the sound does that mean it is my balljoints? And one more question, my 97 disco just started stalling the rpm's just dwindle out and it dies i think it might be a vacum leak but i don't know do you have any quick checks i can make to diagnose it.
Thanks alot,
Eric
