Default Play in suspension linkage

So I'm replacing the bearings in the pivot arm, and when I put it back together, there is a little bit of play between the bushing and the bearing. I didn't notice this before. The bearings are Japanese. Don't remember what brand. Is this normal? It's kind of bothering me but I don't want to order a new pin/by shing and wait for it to show up just to find out that I have the same problem. Anyone else have experience with this?

There will always be some. Just a little bit between the bolts and spacers will add up to a bit.

But the main thing is that the bearing are working on a fresh surface . If they are fine then don't lose any sleep over it.

Okay. Thanks. Yeah the pin is smooth and round. I'll just run it. Thanks!
