I have groan in front end at low speed and turning left. Wheel bearings good.

check your rear brakes, double check the front hubs and intermediate shaft and mention whether or not you have traction control

Rear brakes are good. Front wheel bearings are good also. I am starting to think front diff maybe going bad.

pull the intermediate - check the splines on it for wear

also, if you've changed the rear diff fluid lately and have a trash-lock make sure you used friction modifier

Intermedit shaft will make noise during left turns?

Since everything turns all of the time you can have some strange noises traveling through the system
If the above that you mentioned are in fact OK then yes I'd go to the intermediate shaft/ CVs/ front driveshaft rear boot and check it etc

Intermediate shaft wasted.

Since I too have the low speed groan and I will be replacing my LBJs very soon with Moog's I bought, it would make sense to just replace the CVs and intermediate shaft all at the same time I do the LBJs, right? Anything else while it's all apart? I am at 114K miles now.
