I noticed the new cassette that I recently put on my rear wheel (XT hub) has a bit of a wobble. When removing the cassette I noticed that the freehub seems to have some play in it. Before I take it all apart I was wonder if it is likely to be just a tighten up job or a new freehub?
If I continue to ride on it will the cassette wear excessively?

is it the axle wobbling or just the freehub?
if it's the axle do somethign now before it wears the cups.

Most shimano Freehub bodies have a bit of play in them.

It's just the freehub that's wobbling.

Does it actually have play, or does it just move a bit side to side when you spin the wheel?

Yes, actual play in the freehub.
