That's way to much play. Typical backlash between a pinion and ring wear is around .006 to .010".
Ebay is one place to check for a replacement. You may want to take the diff. cover off to check to make sure the ring gear carrier bearings are not bad, before buying another gear set. This would also give you a chance to visually inspect both the pinion and ring gear, before purchasing another gear set. The pinion adjustment could also be way off, resulting in excessive backlash.

First of all what car do you even have?
About .006 is typical on many. 1/4" is insane. I would remove the diff and do a thorough inspection. Who knows what is wrong with it. As long as all the components are in good condition, you can throw it back together following the service manual. 47k is really not much. I replaced the carrier bearings in my Clipper at 93k.
