Message	Its a combination of a few things, but it is acceptable. Primarily, the play is coming from the ring and pinion in the rear axle. As these two components heat up, that free play will slowly go away as the metals expand into each other. If these components had no freeplay in them, they would bind when they reach operating temperature. Petz #3
