Tighten it up. Something has to be wrong. Any drivetrain component should be tight and free of any slop.
Have you, or can you determine where the slop is? Bad u-joints, worn driveshaft components, or even a pinion nut that has come loose will result in this slop.
Perhaps something in the differential is where this problem is.
ANything is possible, but you will have to identify where the problem is.
