Driver side CV axle loose

I've been fighting a leaking driver side CV axle for a while. I got under there and grabbed the diff side of the axle and has quite a bit of play in and out (normal?) but also up down. I thought it was going to be the needle bearing so I ordered the ECGS bushing and went to swap it today. Turns out I already had a bushing, probably from when I had the front re-geared and ARB locker installed. Here is a video after popping out the axle. - YouTube The whole piece the bushing is pressed into is moving. What is going on here?

What does the bearing surface look like on the cv axle? It might be worn. Or even the bushing could be worn out.
