Axel stubs loose, banging LSD! - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

I have a VLSD out of a 180sx and being my first LSD, I didn't know what I was looking at. Now, to find out much later that the diff that was sold to me was either severely abused or, well that's got to be it. Anyways, the diff clunks real bad when turning from a dead stop or just engauging the clutch hard. Upon inspection, I noticed that the axel stubs were'nt very tight into the diff. especially the right one. There is play when rotating them back and forth and pushing the stub in and out of the diff.
Is it possible that the axel stub splines are worn and new stubs might fix the problem?
