Default Front DS rotates (08 Rub)

I am curious to know if the the front stock ds should rotate about 1/8" back and forth. I put on a 3.25" RC Susp L back in April 10. Since then everything is running fine but I am getting ready for some new mods. So I just wanted to look at the front and back to see how they are . . . look great, no grease, leaks, etc. . . except for the movement on the front. Is this ok? Is it on it's way out? What is the life expectancy (lol). Replace it now?

Hopefully it's good. Do you have stock DSs? Any lift?
