Just wondered if you are changing the bearings because of the play in the shaft.
THis is normal.
Cheers John

I was yes. I did wonder as the bearing is not rough or anything just the play. Is it ok if left then? I assume the spigot will stop it slapping
about anyway?

Not sure on how much play is OK, but there is a fair bit off side to side movement if you wiggle the end of the shaft!

There will always be some movement as the shaft is only supported by a single ball race when not bolted to an engine. The spigot bearing in the end of
the crank exists for exactly this reason.
