	Endplay
		The excessive endplay isn't so much the fault of the bearings themselves (though they may cause some of it), but more the engine case -- the bearing holders in the case, and areas like that.
		There are three thin shims at the flywheel end which are used to adjust the endplay, and this would be done if you completely rebuild the engine.
		The trail of discovery to this problem is interesting -- first the clutch slipping, which was caused by oil getting by the main seal, which in turn was damaged by the excessive endplay due to a spun bearing.

		Endplay is the measure of free movement of the tire and wheel assembly along the spindle axis.
		Set up the instrument so the plunger is against the end of the spindle, approximately parallel to its axis.To test endplay, grab the wheel assembly with one hand at the three o'clock position and the other at the nine o'clock position.
		Then reassemble and retorque the outer nut.If endplay is not present, remove the outer nut and loosen the inner nut to the next alignment hole.

	Science Fair Projects - Endplay
		An endplay, in bridge and similar games, is a tactical play where a defender is put on lead at a strategic moment, and then has to make a play that loses one or more tricks.
		In a case where declarer has no entries to dummy (or to his own hand), the defender may also be endplayed into leading a suit which can be won in that hand.
		If the adverse spades are divided 2-1, there are 12 certain tricks (6 spade tricks, 2 hearts, 1 diamond, 3 clubs) and the possibility of a 13th by correctly guessing the two-way finesse (or dropping the queen) in hearts.

	The Valvoline Cup National Points Championship!
		The endplay of the cam should be minimal, as the movement of the cam back and forth during engine operation changes the way the gears mesh between the cam and distributor, which alters the total ignition timing in the engine.
		To set the cam endplay, the end plate on the two-piece cover for the Jesel beltdrive is installed with various shims.
		On our MSD distributors, we set the endplay at 0.008 to 0.010 inch, using various shims between the housing and a 0.006-inch bigger od bronze gear pinned to the end of the shaft, to reduce the amount of clearance between the distributor and cam gear.

	Adjusting tapered bearings
		The optimal initial endplay depends on a number of factors, including shaft and housing materials, bearing fits, and operating temperatures.
		Endplay adjustments in tapered roller bearings are made during assembly or installation to compensate for the expected thermal expansion during operation and system deflections.
		Axial preload in tapered roller bearings is produced by displacing one bearing ring axially in relation to the other by an amount corresponding to the desired preload force.

		Endplay is adjusted independently of clutch gap, and it is the amount that the clutchbell slides on the crankshaft with all internal bearings installed.
		Endplay on the Centax-2 or Centax-3 clutch is adjusted by using very small shims ON THE CRANKSHAFT IN FRONT OF THE FLYWHEEL NUT (holding the flywheel onto the crankshaft).

	Endplays
		Most endplays involve a tenace, an honor holding with which declarer may gain a trick if the suit is led by an opponent.
		Another way to execute an endplay is to put an opponent on lead in one suit and force him to lead another suit in which you hold a tenace — else he must give you a ruff and discard.
		An endplay might still be possible if declarer has adequate trump length, but in this case the only chance is to force an opponent to surrender a ruff and discard.

	99 Miata thrust bearing failure
		I just checked the endplay and it is fine now but do I have to worry about it in the future.
		If your endplay is fine now and there is no excessive endplay to allow an accelerated wear then your engine will likely live a normal life span.
		If you noticed the excessive endplay before the thrust bearing fell out and there is no other damage from the metal powder then you can probably just get a standard engine rebuild.

		In this example, the endplay is determined to be a satisfactory 0.004-0.006 inch.

		VW sez that endplay needs to be between 0.07-0.13mm (about 0.003"-0.005").
		Like Ric described, it is a HD bracket that reaches around to the front of the flywheel and bolts to the case, so that you can measure the distance between the flywheel and the bracket.
		I've also used the GBE method of measuring endplay by measuring the depth in the flywheel (ie: how far in the crank goes) and the length of the flywheel end of the crank (with the bearing in place).

		Tap on the end of BOTH axles (using the hammer and block of wood) to "seat" the bearing races against the reinforcement plates.
		Grab the end of the right axle and try to move it in and out- If you can "feel" the endplay- you have too much and need to REMOVE some shims.

		The lack of correct shimming increases the endplay with the same results as high mileage on the thrust washer.
		The right side thrust washer would ultimately be thrown away after a new one is used to determine the shimming to be used on the primary side (part of trial assembly and used to centralize the crank properly).
		The endplay stays at zero, as there is nothing to wear out to increase it other than the ball bearing itself, which normally takes forever.

		As stated by George Kreppein from Rockland Standard Gear, "Endplay tolerances are critical to the life span of these transmissions.
		Tremec's specs call for an endplay of 0.000-0.002", but we went the other way and selected a shim to obtain 0.002" of preload.

		Also, keep in mind that the play will vary a bit depending on which way you're turning the engine over...as I recall they are helical cut gears in there and they tend to want to "walk away" from each other as you rotate.

		I would say a Corvette differential, assuming the clutch pack is shimmed properly, should not have over about.050 endplay.
