Those Superduty unit bearings have plastic parts in them (I think they might
be the bearing races, but not sure) and can fail suddenly and spectacularly.
Get the front end looked at ASAP. If you intend to keep the truck for a
while, you might consider replacing the unit bearings with a real
spindle-and-hub system; Dynatrac has one www.dynatrac.com.
