Eccentric Shaft End Play?

I didn't torque it at all, just ran a battery impact on it and the rear nut for a few seconds (probably around 90-100ft/lbs given the tools specs) just for fitment purposes but now that you mention it I can see the specified torque being crucial to the fitment process. Only thing is, is that will possibly get me a little less play. If you successfully run yours with a run-out of .0015mm with no issue then I'll stay with the "K" where I had the initial .015mm run-out and of coarse rechecking it after properly torquing the front and rear.
