Rear Problems
 

I've had my 3:73's for years now and the rear is really starting to clunk in between shifts. I crawled under the car and the the rear a tons of play back and forth in it. Also I pulled on the wheels and they move in and out about an 1\8 of an inch. Any idea what this could be and if so is it a weekend fix. I've done trannys and motors but I know rears have to be perfect and need a special pinion depth tool do you think should I try to fix it on my own. Thanks alot

Sounds like a loose pinion nut. Check that. If thats not ityou can make your own pinion depth setting tool by using a metal block to go across the main caps and measure from the bottom of that down to the face of the pinion.
