SX/SXi/SXi Pro drive shaft play?

Location
Mesa AZ
Wondering if someone could provide some insight as to how much play there should be at the pump end of the drive shaft if any? My impeller grooved my pump pretty good and I've been told it is from bad drive shaft bearings. I have about 1 to 1 1/2 inches of play. Any help is greatly appreciated!
