Is it the driveshaft bolts that are loose?
not loose but maybe the tightening method had not been followed, or the bolts used more than once ...
They are stretch bolts and only work the first time of tightening and Angle Torque after that they are like elastic and stretch so do not hold the shafts secure enough to prevent back lash in the splines ...
