vibration update....yoke condition

OK...
got the housing off....the bushing is definitely worn, but i can't see any other obvious things wrong. i put the housing over the yoke, without the output shaft being there, and there is 1/4" side-to-side play at the yoke ears.
NOW....
judging by this, is my previous assumption correct? that the extra ride height (the vibration wasn't there until i put on the S/S springs) caused the yoke to have more side load on it. So i could drive it, and it would be smooth, and then a bump or other disturbance would get the yoke cocked, causing the vibration, and the wear on the yoke, since it's only on one side.

also.....what would you say about me reusing this yoke? It's a 1350 yoke, and I'd HATE to have to buy another...this one's brand new.
