On my '87 Notchback (was duke, now 3800sc) My rear driver tire has some play in it. If I grab it at 10 and 4 o'clock I can wiggle the wheel. If I grab it anywhere else there is no play. Today I replaced the Tie Rod -end, thinking it was that. I doubt it's the wheel bearing because only play at 10-4. Could it be the rear Ball Joint??

Any help or Ideas would be great.

I'll show you what a really loose rear ball joint looks like...



Turns out that the shop hadn't bothered to tighten up the nuts on the rear ball joints when they were installed.

I guess i'll get someone to come over and wiggle the wheel as I take a look. The reason I looked into this is, As I make a turn, the back-end seems sloppy. I had the car aligned and after a few good turns, the steering wheel cross pieces went from 9-3 to 11-5.
