I know some wobble is OK, but is this too much wobble on the rear axle? replaced the axle and the bearings, greased them up, screwed all into place. can't remember what it was before I replaced it, am I good here?

Play in the hub bearings is not great because it leads to uneven loading of the bearings and likely faster degradation.
