Silly question, but are you sure the hex is pushed on all of the way? You can still see some of the axle pin. Otherwise, that is a ton of play. You sure the inner bearing is in too?
That is too much play, something is wrong. Something ain't jivin. Have you looked at exploded diagrams and made sure you have all of the parts on right? I would expect a few mm in play, but no more then that. If it is put together right then look into some shims. It will be sloppy like that.

Problem solved..! DUH...easy fix..wish they all were that easy... Maybe I`ll get some 23mm hub`s...! This thing might run today...Good job....THANK YOU
