Just installed new ones... with the amount of play in these bearings... the rear susp would wobble just going down the street!!
Do they tighten up? or whats the deal? Do I need to get new one's? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/headbang.gif) |

Did you pull/push the rear hubs into the bearing?

There are two halves to a bearing. Until they are squeezed together, they will be loose as hell. When you tighten them up with the stub axle, it will resolve the problem.
