In general the rotating part of a bearing (on the axle shaft in this
case) is a press fit while the stationary part (in the rear axle
housing) is a push fit. Tolerances on bearings are quite tight, but the
axle housing could be a different matter. Even when the outer race of
the bearing is a bit on the loose side it should not spin in the axle
housing. If it does it is worn and/or with debris inside. If a bearing
has spun, it is often sufficient to replace the bearing and using some
Locktide between outer race and housing. This will however make
disassembly in the future more difficult.
