You'll have to forgive my poor memory on the specific number - - -

I talked to Kyle Tucker at Columbus about this issue and he said that they've had some issues on the rear and that they at times go through several axle bearings until they find ones that have acceptable "end play" - not sure if that is the correct term. They press them on and check them and if they don't meet spec, they scrap them and try another one.

I want to say he said they shoot for .007" total, but that my not be correct. - -Edit - - - OK not sure on my number even more now that I read this thread on PT.

It looks like people were having problems with .005" end play.
