I checked for up/down play but nothing, couldn't detect any movement at all, didn't think lateral play.

"What is the rear axle support that you are able to run the driveline while on stands?"

The vehicle is supported on the two rear jack mounts with wooden blocks.
If the rear suspension is in full droop, conflicting noises may be coming from the half-shafts, CV joints, and diff side bearings.

The process of changing the preload, as illustrated in the link, is correct. NOTE how LITTLE movement of the pinion nut is required.
