A full recon diff?

I had one go shortly after we bought the first Rangie, badly built I guess or perhaps not new parts, they don't like having the preload set as if they were new when they arn't as the suface is already runb in.

Alternatively it could be the propshaft angle.

Fit a god S/H one for now.
