I didn't remove my axle when I changed my drum brake pads and CV joints, but there is quite a bit of slop in the wheel bearing in the back. I have not inspected the bearings in a long time. I will tighten the rear axle nut per Bentley and see what happens. If it gets worse or better I may have found something. I will check to see if the brake drum is seated also.

Thanks, Blake
