There should be no lateral play (up-down, left-right) in the pinion shaft of
a Dana 30, should there? :-/

No, if there is, the pinion bearing is shot.

Thought so. Damn. You'd think the seal would go too, but it's holding.

Hi Matt,
See if you can get away with just tightening it up. We're supposed
to replace the nut, if we have to take it off, for a seal or whatever,
it may have just backed off. If it tightens with less than what you feel
is the crash strength, of something up around 200, than that's what
happen.
