Outer Limits 4x4 Board

hi guys i got a 1999 hilux with the ifs now on the driver side where the cv bolts onto the diff that is all loose and clunks when u are going over a bump
on the road what is this would this be just a bearing gone in the diff housing and what do i need to do to fix this.
i am allmost certain the front dif will have to come out but i want to make sure before i pull it out that there is
not something trivial that i might be missing, cheers

Check that the axle flange hasn't moved outward from the diff, here is a pic of how it should sit,

It is held in by a snap ring that engages once the axle is inserted far enough itno the diff.

the problem is on the short side not the long side of the dif

Yep, best pic I have, hopefully it demonstrates how far in the axle should be.

Cheers

where the shaft goes in on the rhs Missing in this photo. the either run needle roller bearings or a bush the commonly wear ARB lockers have a removable bush. if there worn it may clunk.
