Default Baja Dune 150 - rear axle play

Hi all,

So I am getting together my Baja Dune 150 and the rear wheels wobble a little bit. I am new to the buggy world and not sure what is acceptable play or not.

Here is a link to a video - not the best quality - that shows some clunking:

How do I know if I need bushings, bearings, etc.? How tight should the castle nut be?

Any guidance would be great!

My guess is a loose hub nut. Raise up rear end then check for the play to determine where it is coming from but I'll bet it is a loose hub.
