Took it all apart and I do see the play in the bearing with the half-shaft wobbling in it, but the bearing looks totally fine after taking it apart. So I'll get a new bearing and hope that solves the issue. I may also get a new axle shaft to see if that solves the backlash play. And I need a new rotor cause from wobbling, one of the brake pad guide pins was rubbing on the rotor when turning right. And will buy another axle nut as well.

Another weird thing is the when removing the axle nut it was only torqued on with about 40-50lbs. I don't know how it got that loose. maybe from the bearing being worn it loosened up the torque.

Thanks again.
