Yeah but doesn't sound like a drive shaft and would making turns make it start and stop....as it did in the beginning. That said I've only had u joints fail and am not familiar with getting "bending" slack in them.
Also, wouldn't the gears in the diff be running against opposite surfaces without the input driving it....do you follow me.....I'm saying wouldnt the backlash would move to the front of teeth. maybe it won't pop when turning under this condition.
Another point for you, the truck doesn't seen to have seen much 4WD so this would go against diff or x-case.
Pardon the grammar I have using this stupid phone to type.

I had considered the differential being on the opposite side of the gears, but when backing up you would be using the same side. It is possible that it doesn't create the issue when not being driven.
