They head honcho showed me why, by grabbing the shaft and moved it about 1.5" in any direction. (!)
Is the slack still there with the org. shaft?

I wouldn't take it off, and find another shop. Or put the piece of **** rag joint on, get it aligned and then swap it back out. Trust me, there is NO play with a jeep shaft installed unless it is other components.They said that this wasn't an alignment issue, so much as a steering issue. The head guy explained that the movement in the shaft would create a dead spot in the steering when it was at center. I'd be able to move the wheel a certain amount, without any of the input reaching the steering box, itself. Maybe they were covering their own butts, so that I wouldn't come back at them saying that the truck wandered when driving in a straight line, after the alignment, & blame it on them.
