Default rear disc brake swap....a little bit of play in the hub....y?

just finished my gsr brake conversion on my 96 ek....fronts are perfect...but there is a little bit of play in the hub on both rears so it causes the rotor and wheel to wobble also.

what could the problem be? bad bearings?

i tightened the 32 mm axle nut as much as it would go...thinking it might solve the problem...but there is still a little bit of play in it...

im concerned about driving with this problem....any input would be aprreciated.

did you install the washer under the 32 mm nut .. if it is missing it will cause play .. and that is a expencive washer

Honda/Acura PN 42324-SB2-020 is the same for drum or disc brakes. They might sell them at autozone & kragen, and are available at some online sites...

http://www.rockauto.com/ref/RB...4.jpg ... sold in packs of 5 for $1.31 each ($6.55 total) at rockauto.com (plus you can get a 5% discount there if you do some coupon hunting).

They are also used in the front (same part #s for front/rear for 99-00 EX/SI models, don't know about other models/years).

Hope this helps.

Did you drive with the play? Wondering if it was loud or how it drove...
