Re: T50, worn bearing?

how much is "a little bit in all directions"????
2mm/1/8in is about normal and won't be much less then that with a new bearing.
what's the pilot/spigot bearing like/condition? that is what supports the other end.
before it was removed, was there any whirring noise when idling in neutral, that disappeared when the clutch was disengaged/pedal on the floor? that is when that bearing(and the lay/counter shaft) will make noise when wornout. don't confuse its noise with release/throwout bearing noise.
it's called the transmission's input or first motion shaft.
