Driver side Drive Shaft.

[yardbird555]

Hi all, the driver side  Drive Shaft on my 2006 Berlingo has been making some ominous noises for a while. Today I finally got it up on some axle stands passenger side wheel is rotating freely but the drivers side is locked up tight. Will this simply be a a job for a new drive shaft ? 
Kind Regards

How long is a piece of string ?

Could be the shaft, the outer support bearing, the differential, caliper seized, wheel bearing .. or even another item.....
