On a side note, I thought that Dana 44's and the ZR1 drive trains in general are bullit proof. I don't drag race the car or drop the clutch of the lights, only some spirited dirivng on the weekends. It only has 34k miles, adn the only mods are headers, high flow cats with cat abck exhaust, and SLP intake. At the same time, I've only had the car for about 7 months, and don't know much if it's history. I think the extra weight i was hauling and the worn out bushings strained the suspenssion compenents too much and allowed the drive shaft push into the diff and damage somethign in there. Just a word of causion I guess.
Does anyone have a write up on step by step diff removal? I'll also check in our tech section.

With the wheel removed, it's hard to get the leverage needed to find play.
If you still don't feel the play, it's a tough call, the yoke rubbing into the housing would probably cause me to tear it apart anyway. But it would be a lot of work. I do remember a write up of somebody taking theres out and doing all the bushings on this site.
