Default Front axle slop

I've got some slop in the front axle that feels like excessive backlash in the gears. This showed up after I installed my metal lockers. It went back together with no issues so I'm at a loss as to what it would be. Any ideas?

The tires can be rotated quite a bit before the dshaft moves. About twice as much as the rear.

Welcome to the club on this. At one point RCbros was making a better locker but they are no longer around. if it were possible to drill a set screw into the locker and axle we would all be way better off. I think Dr. Frank has some some stuff on other rigs and just hit the MRC market so maybe we will have a fearless leader.
