Angry 92 ford bronco please help

Had to change rotor today took everything apart and put back together 7x. I cannot get the hub cap to go all the way on. There is about a 1/4" gap. Looked at other side and axle iis pushed out greater than the side i am changing. I have pulled the axle out as far as i can get it and there is still a gap. Please help me very frustrated.

I put the gears back in lockin nut washer etc then when i go to slide body assembly on it goes in but i can see old markings and its about 1/4inch out. I took the passenger side off and the axle is sticking out about a quarter inch more than the drivers side. I tried pulling axle out and it pulledbut still stops short. One thought was my jack location since its split axle but i lowered the jacm and axle didnt move. It is automatic 4wd.

I'm still a bit lost.
As of right now it only sounds like you misaligned the vehicle, and in that case just get an alignment and you should be set.

any other member have ideas what may be wrong, this is starting to interest me.....

Start over again.
Are you talking about the front or the rear.
A hub is only on the front.
Is it 4 wheel drive?
If you replaced bearings likely the new bearings are not fully seated.
Give some clairity to what your doing.
We don't have crystal ***** to see with.

Its the front drivers side. It is automatic 4wd. The outer bearing fell out when I took hub off. I placed it back in and tightened nut. Im sorry im only an amatuer. Is there something I needed to do to bearing. Appreciate the help.
