Keep regreasing the slip yokes on the driveshaft over time. You will see the slip yoke move a bit when grease is getting in there properly. I waited 3000 miles between regreasing and it was too long (I don't drive too much recently).
 
Put it on a lift. Turn the front and rear wheels on one side with the car in park. The diff backlash before the other wheel turns should not exceed 1/8 of a turn. Now check the play on each u-joint - any discernible play replace it. Check for play in the slip-joint, if not too bad suck it up and grease more often.
 
I reckon most of the play in situations like this is coming from the CV/HUB Flange.
 
My experience is that the front diff mount brackets are shot and need replacement. I went with the whole new plate with the bushings and zero noise since. I had the exact same issue as you describe.

the plate on the front of the diff?

That's what my money is on too. I just got mine replaced and it is a night and day difference when shifting and when letting off the throttle at speed

Yessir. Instead of replacing just the bushings..just did a new plate with the oem bushings included.
