I performed a close up inspection of the spindles and where the inner bearing rides is worn. It was not evident when the axle was on the truck because the wear is only on the bottom. From the top it looks perfect. A measurement confirmed the wear to be a couple of thousands but worn none the less. It looks like I need replacement spindles. I’ll be posting for replacements on the parts wanted section.
