    No play in the pinion bearings?

    You could remove the rear cover an check the backlash with a dial indicator.

    To adjust you will need to use a special tool to spread the housing so the carrier can be removed to change the shims in the carrier bearings.

    Or the spider and side gears are worn.

    Better option would be to take it to a diff specialist.
    If I told you I was a compulsive liar, would you believe me?
