2nd Generation Front Wheel Play

91 Camry when I grab the top and bottom of the left front wheel I can feel some play
it has a new tie rod and ball joint.Only thing I can think of is the wheel hub bearing how much trouble is it to pull.

it's not too hard to pull.. just take off the whole steering knuckle few shields to take out first and you press it out.

Down load the bearing inspection data from the link below. You can put a dial indicator on the hub and check for end play.

The axle nut may also be loose... Either way, the bearings are likely worn out.
