I have the truck jacked up and rear end on jack stands, both wheels off, both drums off.
Should I be able to turn the axle from both sides by the studs? and should I be able to slide the axle from driver side to passanger side? There is like an 1/8 play from side to side is this OK or not? Any help or advice and I will reurn the favor. Thank you.
