Pinion gear play.
1986 2WD 7.5" 3.58 differentail and have some play in the pinion gear at the drive shaft connection. IT's not u-joints. It has 413,000 miles so could be worn front bearing, but I heard a pinion gear nut can back off. Is a backed off pinion gear nut a common occurance on these Toyota differentials? Just curious to get an idea what I might be up against in repairs. Thanks
