Many thanks benpalmer in my case it looks like someone got their decimal place in the wrong position!
Sometimes the fully floating driveshaft can float out completely:

The driveshaft wears, and the flange wears and eventually they give up.

As a follow up to this James if I wanted to replace drive shafts and drive flanges how do I tell whether I have 2 or 4 pinion pinion diff? Can I tell without removing the diff?

2 or 4 pin diff do you mean if so it wouldnt matter ,and neither does the fact rear half shafts can move in/out

Yes. Unrelated to the in / out movement looking to replace the half shafts and drive flanges as there is some wear between the two but different shaft part numbers quoted depending on whether 2 pin or 4 pin diff eg frc7680 for 2 pin and frc8094 for 4 pin...bit confused.
