Dana 35c to have axle end play, BUT sound equals damage!

not a locker.

And Simon, the whine sounds like the R&P installer may have not set them up
properly.

I'm with Jerry on this one. The slop you are experiencing is not abnormal in
itself, but coupled with the noise, it sounds like the R&P set-up is wrong.

Simon Redmond

well dropped the fluid out and I think I've managed to get some water in
there, just milky grey goop came out..... oops

teeth look OK and can't see an obvious signs of damage, so am hoping it's
just a bearing.

Cheers for the help and advice tho...
