I wouldn't worry about it too much. As Jerry C said though , the correct measurement is taken at the gear set. If you are getting drive line / gear slop that you can hear or feel in 5th gear, I would look for something else besides the rear end. Depending on the miles and abuse its had it could just be a collective "slop factor" in everything. If everything is reasonably tight, I'd be looking at the gear set and main shaft uin the tranny.
