Replaced Rear wheel bearing and still have play

idk like timmy said they have some play even new. When I removed my axles to replace my bearing and seals i saw a little rock in the old bearing so thought it was bad but after getting the new one in it had the same movement. Not a ton but it will move if you grab the axle and hold end rocking back and forth

Sounds like your over thinking it. Your not getting bad bearings cause you tried mulitiples. Either its fine and your over thinking or something else was missed and your over looking it.

The bearing isnt really pressed im like you saw in timmy video, it can just kinda fall out if turned upside down.

You need to post a video so we can actully see what your talking about.
 
You cant really see it but you can defiantly hear it and the other side does not do it. I'll try to take another video at a better angle when i get a chance. feeling defeated on this one. I just been driving it around as its my daily driver. Thanks for all the reply's!

3gen 4runner wheel play - YouTube

Hey maybe this is insane, but have you tried swapping wheels and lug nuts with the side that isn't moving? When I watched the video, my first thought was it was the wheel somehow loose on the drum. It wasn't clear to me if you detected the slop when you grabbed the hub without the wheel.
 
Have not figured out the issue yet. At some point ill take it to a machinic, to see what they think it is. I have tried moving the drum and wheel from the other side and nothing changed. In the video the wheel lug nuts were torqued down to spec. Probably not the best idea but I've just been driving around with is as is for now. Not throwing anymore money at this particular issue till i know what causing it.
