Idler arm slop A body Dart

Should there be slop on the idler arm? The bolt fits loosly in the bushing. Looks around 1/16-1/8 clearance. I can move the bolt side to side when in the bushing. When installed and the car raised I can move the tire side to side and see it moving a lot. The car seems to track a lot when hitting ruts in the road. I bought a new idler and it seems to have almost the same slop with new bolt and new idler. Is this right or should it be a real close/tight fit? The one I bought is MOOG which I thought was high quality.
