A guy on another board for fjcruisers is wondering about this issue..any help would be greatly appreciated

I just bought a '92 FJ80 and I noticed it has some play at the front drive shaft when puting in gear (Drive). While driving when I release the foot from the accelerator and press it again rapidly, I feel like a "pull" from the front drive shaft. The rear shaft is ok, but the issue is about the front drive shat with the excessive play. What could be the problem and how can I resolve it?

Sounds like the front pinion bearing is loose. But not enough info to really know. Does it leak in the area?
Your info could suggest a loose U-joint or other trouble. You need to be more specific. Where exactly is the movement?
