I noticed that the front output has what I would consider excessive in-out (axial) play. The yoke is clamping the bearing to the shaft adequately. The bearing is sliding in and out in the housing by almost 1/8". I pulled the bearing out, and I can still see machining marks on the housing bore, so it doesn't appear that the bore is worn. It seems that the seal housing is the only thing that constrains the bearing from moving, and it has a decent size gap between its inner surface and the bearing. Is this slop normal??
