Default Propshaft Runout ?

I was checking some TRS prop shafts (between centers in a lathe) and I was wondering if any of you Drive Builders could tell Me what is acceptable.One runs out .004 and one has .008 runout.

Rob, try and measure it with V blocks if you can. I assume it is straight between the races, then has a bend in what would be the prop portion. Supporting the shaft at the 2 races, measuring at the end of the prop shaft .004 is OK, .008 is marginal.
