Light grease all the way round the outer bearing before fitting them in
Heavy amount of grease on inner sections of bearings to hold needles in
Cleaned/rubbed down before bearings are put in (axle tube and arms)

that was how it was done, plenty off cleaning and bearing greese was used on it

It had about 5mm off play but when it was stripped and cleaned the shaft was checked all round with a vernier caliper and was bang all the way round too so maybe it was caught in time
