I took everyones advise on this (after checking the Id and Od measurements) and torqued my wheel nut down to 65 pounds of torque and backed the car up about 50 feet or so and then brought it back into the garage. Loosened the wheel nut and adjusted the wheel nut by hand until the bearing was tight and the wheel turned freely. No more slop in the wheel. I guess I had never got the bearing seated correctly.

As usual I get everything all together the day before I leave for a race. Heading to Elkhart Lake at 9:30 am today. Had to clear a few things off my desk first. Hope to see you there Scott.
