Clearance between propshaft and supporting bearing ought to be in the 0.002" to 0.003" range.

You can get away with slightly more than that, but if you’re going to run it for any amount of time, and the current clearance is much greater than 0.005", consider re-bushing it.

Just my two cents.

He's livin' in his own private Idaho..... I hope to go out quietly in my sleep, like my grand-dad did..... and not screaming, like the passengers in his car...
