Jeep Comanche ford 8.8 rear axle... bad gear slop.....?

sry for low quality video, but ive been noticing a loud clacking when going from reverse-drive or the vice versa. So i crawled underneath and noticed an excessive amount of ?gear slop?. Now there are no shavings in the diff. though i haven't pulled the cover yet. Going to be getting ahold of my shop and see what's up.

the "excessive" slop is from the locker. still driving it all the time and there are no issues. fluid still clean so no worries

Dan Hall I never updated this but its actually perfectly fine. just slop in the rear end. I have a very recent video on my channel from this passed weekend. Rear axle is still serving me well, the front axle on the other hand..... well, its a Dana 30
