installed a LSD and dtss toe eliminators and now wheel wiggles, axle or bearing?

hello

so i installed a lsd and toe eliminators and put on the tires and 1 of them wiggles while the car is still jacked up i can grab it and wiggle it back and forth im sure everything is tight, im not sure if i had this problem before i replaced this cause ive never took off the back tire before, so im wondering what will cause this is the wheel bearing bad? or is the drive axle i got bad?

thanx, any help will be appreciated

Sounds like a bad wheel bearing to me.

When you reinstalled the hub did you put those plastic spacers back on the top bolt.

Get somebody to wiggle the wheel while you are under the car.
