hub rotor issue

Hey all. I put on a new spindle, new hub bearings and races. Left side went together fine. Right side though, even after tightening spindle nut, the hub and rotor are still loose on the spindle. Any ideas what would cause the bearings not to seat on the spindle and tighten up? I am wondering if I didn't get the new race pressed in far enough. Any ideas, please let me know. Thanks.
