1979 Jeep CJ5 with '72 304 V8, MC2100carb,T150 trans, AMC20 rear diff with locker, Dana 30 front diff, Dana 20 Tr Case, Procomp Springs, Gabriel Ultra shocks.
I replaced my u joints on my driveshaft today, thanks to everyone for their assistance and advice, but I did notice that there was a bit of play in the shaft. I drew a line between the yoke and the case then rotated it and drew another line. You can see that there is about .75" of play in it. Should I be concerned about this?
 
This looks like pretty normal play in the diff...between the R&P and axle shafts, there is more play then you would think.
