I pulled the hubs off the rear axle the other day to check the parking brake shoes (which were badly worn as it turns out). What worried me was the amount of 'free play' or endfloat in the driveshaft. It moves freely in and out by about 5mm or maybe more - like it was sliding on splines or something. This movement seems excessive to me but I can't see what's supposed to limit it. How much play should there be? It drives OK, but I'd rather not have the back wheels fall off driving down the road
