CB550k3 Rear hub movement

(1/5) > >>

Bookmark1:
I seem to have a fair bit of movement in the rear hub. The wheel has just been rebuilt and is off the bike but whilst I was bolting the sprocket back on I noticed that the flange lifts 3 or 4 mm out of its housing - is this normal? If not, any ideas what may be causing it.

Trigger:
Check to see if the sprocket carrier is worn on the in side  ;)

Sprocket carrier looks fine but it has been so well cleaned that you probably wouldn't see signs of wear. I have taken photos but the files are too big to share.
I did notice that the retaining ring sits a few mm proud of the flange - could it be that the bearing isn't seated deep enough?

Bryanj:
Im sure ring should screw down tight so someting is not right

This is the flange. The grooves on the inside are deep and full - I can’t see any signs of wear.
