Get one wheel off the ground, stick the gearbox in 1st and see how much play 'lash' you have in the diff... a possibility could be our MPi unfriendly diff pin about to let go...

play lash? what am i looking for mate?

[Guess-Works.com]

excessive movement, with it in gear you should only be able to turn the free wheel a few degrees before you feel the resistance...
