knuckle seal

Hi All,

Is it normal to have play in the axle shaft coming through the knuckle seal? I can move the spindle shaft all around the seal.
I took an video clip http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rmyaBY7QQes

Thanks,

Lou

Yes, the only thing holding it is the seal and the u-joint with all those parts removed.

Don't forget to grease the main hub bearing also!
