Default should I be able move th400 tailshaft?

since ive put the tranny and new driveshaft i have noticed a definite vibration and thought the driveshaft was out of balance but I grabbed the front yoke and could wobble the tailshaft not quite a 1/2 an inch. should i be able to do that? i wouldnt think so right? and how hard is it to replace.

Default yoke

pull the d shaft support the trans and remove the extension housing(6bolts) and have someone install a new bushing. don't drive it if it as loose as you say you will surely ruin the trans
