I have just replaced my rear wheel bearings and have put the hubs back in. There seems to be quite a bit of play in them. This is without the drive shafts in. I'd say about 1mm play left to right. Is this normal? Has be experianced this before?

They're not loaded up yet. Put the driveshafts in and torque up the nuts, then try again.
