Default Play in Spider Gears

Figure somebody would know. This is the second Dana 30 I rebuilt - (fried pinion bearing). All went well pattern/backlash looks good but when putting the axles back in noticed a bit of play in the spider/planetary gears.

Video in link. Is this normal? They do not look worn. If I hold the spider gear still there is less movement.
