Default axle shaft/carrier spline play

hey guys, so i've had a serious clunk goin on. and the gears look fine, but the carrier seems to move a fair bit with the tires on the ground.. i took the driveshaft off and turned the pinion with the driveshaft of and it has a bit of play thats forsure.. seems to be in the splines where the axles go in, im not super familiar with rear ends, but its lookin pretty ****ty. either the carrier or axles significantly softer than the other, or do you think they are both worn and both need to be replaced?? any insight would be great thanks.
