Hi there, this is my first ever post on here, and im hoping someone could help. When I accelerate or De-accelerate, theres a big heavy clunk, which sounds like something transmission wise. Ive been searching for info before and got told its the a frame ball joint, but was underneath her earlier and that seems solid with a bar to it, and the uj's seem fine aswell. When I was turning the front prop, there was play in it, about quarter of a turn. Could someone point me in the direction of what should I check or do next to find out exactly what it could be. Many thanks, Rich.
New gearbox output shaft and cross drilled gear if suffix c or later if you find wear
And that could be changed with out removing gearbox? Its a suffix E, from what I can see now, before I take the plate off to inspect it, will oil come out of there? And will I need a gasket to put back. Reason im askin as im currently on a tarmac drive and obviously dont want oil over it. Thanks.

If its an auto mine did that and it was the prop shaft knackered
Half inch square is oil level plug, gasket or later boxes instant gasket used- either way make sure cleaned and oil free (spay brake cleaner) and no it shouldn't drop masses of oil out
If you have auto box the zf adapter is ftc5090 for cross drilled transfer box gear.
