Re: Offroad Forum Glossary
Backlash is the amount of free movement the pinion has before it affects the ring gear in an axle I believe.

From a newb, great post guys.
Just one comment:

Selectable lockers can also be activated via cable - see OX lockers.
Not trying to be picky or anything, just putting all the options on the table.
