So I replaced all my U joints about 10k ago. I was putting in an exhaust this weekend, and discovered some play in my front drive shaft. The joint closest to the pinion is able to be moved around along both axis that the caps spin around. THe body of the joint seems to be able to slide in and out of the caps about a 16th of an inch. There is no rotational looseness of the shaft though. I dont remember ever noticing this before, and doing the wiggle test on the rear shaft does not give the same result, although the cap retainers are different. IT would be nice if this is what is causing my vibration at 60mph. Can anyone tell me if this movement is normal, or if I should replace it? Thank you
