hi there, first post from me,
Sympthoms are driving around 1500 rpm - 20 to 40 km/h I get some winning noise/vibration back through steering, engaging 4x4 high definitely makes it worse, turning doesn't seem to affect it really I can can get it while on a straight line, still there when 4x4 disengaged (auto) but lower noise, the noise also fades when driving faster but still there in the background.
As you can see in this video I got some play perpendicular to the axis and also some play on the axis line. No play on the wheel side joint.
I'm thinking the differential bearing is shot but that's not a 5 min job so trying to eliminate an axle/CV joint issue if it could be.. what ya'll think ?
