Default CV axle question - play?

Passenger side CV axle - I can move the part that goes into the transmission in and out about 1mm. I can't actually pull it out but it does move this 1mm.

Reason I ask is b/c we got the clutch done about 1 month ago, noticed a clunk while backing up from that side. Also, can't move the driver's side like the passenger side - wondering if they did not reseat the axle correctly after completing the clutch replacement.

97 HX 211K miles

Thanks

should not move. Sounds to me like they didn't seat it, or they lost/broke the retainer clip on the end and just shoved it back in the hole. Either way it is not correct.
