Problems, rear dif hopping
I had some clunking and rear end grinding when turning slowly. Today I changed the rear dif fluid and transmission fluid. I have 40k and done several hpde on a 2007 base. While doing the figure 8 noticed more noise and rear end hopping. Seems to be getting worst only happen on slow turns. Any ideas? Could it be an axle problem at a loss

The u joint is actually a + shape about the size of the palm of your hand. The ends of the u joints are able to rotate arounds it's center point. If they r broken you'll see a crack all the way around that joint.
This is a u joint.
The shiny heads on all four points might be broken. You might be able to see them if u remove the wheel and drop the suspension full stretch, but most likey you would need to remove the half shaft to see them
