Neat vid, however, he's showing the bearings outside of the axle - if I did that with the bearings on my truck, hey'd show a lot more than 0.001" of play (more like a 1/4"). Funny thing is that it was visually a lot more than that - I'd get 0.1"

Anyhow, I can't see it being a caused by the rotors pressing the pads away from them physically by flexing, at the hub, at the bearings, etc. Sorry man. I just don't see how it would happen.
