this might sound stupid but i assume the right rear is together ? take that drum off and walk back and forth till the other side is back together . that is how alot of mechanics do it. one side at a time so you always have the other side to look at.

do u mean the axle has "play" when u grab the tire and wiggle it up and down?? if it has play, then it propbably needs an AXLE SEAL AND AXLE BEARING.you will have to carefully inspect the axle itself where the bearing rides for any gouging or damage. THIS JOB requires a decent amount of mechanical skill. 1ST you need to remove the rear end COVER and drain out the gear oil into a drain pan.2ND remove the brake caliper and rotor . 3RD spin the" ring and pinion " around until u see a 5/16 bolt that passes thru from the pass. side to the drivers side. u have to remove this bolt. u will need to "hold "the gears from turning in order to break loose this bolt. 4TH remove this bolt and slide out the large metal ""PIN" that 'divides" the rear end in half. NOW CAREFULLY WITHOUT TURNING THE REAR END SPIDER GEARS,PUSH IN THE AXLE TOWARDS THE INSIDE SO U CAN REMOVE THE "C-CLIP" AT INNER END OF AXLE. now u can slide out axle and youll be able to replace seal and if needed axle bearing. let me know if u need more info.

there are two main designs. One uses a bearing and flange at the backing plate area, release that and you can pull the axle and bearing.

the Other design is call a c lock axle. Inside the carrier, there are 4 spider gears. Two are splined to the alxes and two idle on an idler shaft. Remove this shaft, and then you can push the axle shaft inwards about an inch or so.

this will allow you to remove the c shaped retainer that is engauged with a groove at the inboard end of the axle.

So, now the bad news: often the c lock axle uses the axle shaft itself and the inside bearing race...which means if the bearing has failed, you need to replace the axle also.... Inspect carefully. Metal temper is the issue and once that is comprimised, you need to replace.

Lap belt or shoulder harness? Lap belt - remove rear seat bottom by pushing in on bottom edge of the seat cushion and lifting. This will expose the lap belt and its anchor. Shoulder belt should be accessible via trunk compartment. If not then you'll have to remove the back of the rear seat to get to it.
