For quite a while now, I've heard an occasional knocking/clunking sound coming from the passenger side axle - it is most noticable during deceleration. It has been getting progressively worse. I assumed one of the CV joints were giving out, so I'm rebuilding a half shaft to put it.
While getting ready to remove the old half-shaft, I took a closer look. I don't think it is bad CV joint anymore. The play seems to be in the transmission itself. It's on the passenger side, inboard. When I twist the axle, there is a lot of play in the transmission and it makes a knocking sound. The drivers side doesn't have this play in it.
What is going on? Am I looking at a transmission rebuild or is this something that can be fixed without a full rebuild?
