Default Cosworth driveshaft play ?

Whilst fitting a Supra diff, I have noticed that my drive shafts (lobo) type have a little play.
What I mean is that, with them off the car, if I hold each end and twist them in opposite directions, there is a little click and a small amount movement.

Should there be any play ??

There was a lot of play in my std diff

I don't want to spend £200 replacing the lobo ends (£50 each), and find there is no significant difference.

Cheers Ridgey

Mine are like that and NMS said they need to be replaced.
