Should my drive shaft have play in it when I remove my jet pump on a 00 gsx rfi.

[Point finder]

I pulled the jet pump on the 2000 gsx rfi I just got because I believe it needs a ring and pump rebuild. Once I removed the pump I noticed the drive shaft has a lot of play/wiggle room. Just wondering if this is a sign of further issues or if this is normal.

Nope, perfectly normal since the driveshaft has tapered splines.
