I changed out the bearings inside my spindle for axleshaft, and messed up the inner wheel bearing in hte process. Anyway i got the new ones and put it together. I cant get it tight enough to keep the top of my tire from moving in and out. I turned the rotor while tightening it, then backed off and tightend it again. I dont know wtf is up. Any ideas?

Everything else tight? (balljoints)?

Anything stuck in between the two bearing races?
