I’ve been going through this Jeep since I got it trying to tighten things up. Rebuilt both DS and found a little play in the passenger side axle u-joint so I bought 2 spicer 5-760 . I noticed a knocking noise under load last week so I removed the front driveshaft and still got the noise just not as much.I replaced the passenger axle joint and it was toasted and still got the noise.
I checked the joint again and it still has play(1-2 mm)
I’ve got a spare set of axles and another new joint.
From what I can tell the clips are seated correct but hard to tell while assembled.
What could cause the play?
My unit bearing has no play.
Should I swap the spare in with new joint?
Thanks
