How much play is normal on the rear axles at point they goes into the rear diff? I can easily wiggle the drivers side around. (Haven’t checked passenger yet.) It seems to be at the splines and not the CVT.

I’ve read a post where someone said theirs did the same thing, and the dealer said it was normal, but I don’t know what normal is. Is normal a very little bit of play, or enough that would alarm the average person that doesn’t know any better?

I just bought this used ’14 1000, 450 miles, and I’m trying to get it ready for a Moab trip and the rear diff had very little fluid in it. Maybe 10 ounces, though not as much metal shavings as I expected though. Before the fluid change, and before I knew it was low, I took it to an off-road park for a few hours and everything seemed to work fine, but I have nothing to compare it to noise wise.

Thanks!
