That sounds like a transmission/tailshaft problem and not a driveshaft problem.

not quite a slip yoke, since it has no "slip"
:but then again, I don't know what the yoke looks like at the transmission tailhousing since I haven't seen the transmission tailhousing of a 2WD 4R70W.
my guess is that the bearing for the yoke is toast, which would cause an excessive amount of play there.
