Default Do i need to rebuild my turbo?

I have a holset turbocharger on my cummins thats getting ready to go in my truck, and was curious how much play is typical in the bearings vertically? Any input is appreciated. Thanks.

.018-.022 is considered to be acceptable for a journal bearing turbo, which feels like a lot, but thy need that much to properly operate.
