Correct. Get someone to put it in gear in 2wd and try to drive it. Peek under the car and look to see which axle is spinning - you found your culprit. If the CV is ok, the front hub is likely stripped. You can get a replacement from an auto yard pretty cheap. Not too hard to replace either unless the car is really rusty.
