- How much "play" should there be in the driveshaft u-joints? Should you be able to turn the driveshaft with your hand? If so, how much is acceptable? If not, what could be allowing it to turn? Thanks

- Not much at all. The tranny and differential probably have play, so you should be able to turn the driveshaft a little. However, if you can easily feel play in the driveshaft it's probably too much.

- There should be very little play, if you can turn it say 1/2" then you've got a problem. My guess would be the thrust washers in your rear end. There is a book that goes into detail on how to change
