Thanks for the feedback and suggestions. Did insure that the bearing race was even with the 3 shims on the left side and no shims on the right side and firmly in contact with the backing plate. Still incurring interference.
Pulled everything back out. Reassembled without shims to check end play on the left side. Found it to be h040". Checked thickness of shims , 3 @ .020 each or .o6o" total.
Zero end play on right side.
How important is the relationship of the stop block face to the axle end? May be need to rotate block 180 degrees?
This is beginning to get a little bit aggregating
