Well what a great response from everyone.
I did fit it up... hence my finding just 3/8" of freeplay max. (noted in the
first email) Yep...after writing that all up, I did remember the 'strap'
type driveshafts and how little play there was there.
I did think about the spacer, but I'd have to lathe up a bit of it to have
the flanges 'lock' into each other properly. (rings on the flat surfaces)

myself!
I'm going to simply leave it as is. Thanks again everyone. MANY thanks.
