Differential video
Should have checked this out closer when I bought it. I didn't give a lot so I'm not out a lot, just disappointed. Looks like I'm gonna need to break it down and assess the situation...

Re: Differential video
The axle will move around like that without the hub and bearing on.

Re: Differential video
The up-down movement is normal, the wheel hub bearing keeps it centered, probably the seals are worn though.
Turning the driveshaft with 2 fingers that easy could mean the adustment has moved, or the bearing could be worn some, the preload is gone. |

Re: Differential video
How important is the preload? Is what you are seeing important enough you would break down the rear end and inspect it further?

Re: Differential video
An unknown rear is a gamble, so now is the time to inspect the inside. Remove just the left axle tube and you can remove both axles and differential to see how they look.
