my freewheel

now that i bought my 2 notches tool and took out the freewheel, i installed it back on after i took out the backing plate.

the freewheel screwed in FINE, smoothly. (This isn't my first time taking out the rear wheel and doing this)

So i put the wheel back on to the bike. what do u know? the freewheel swirls..

it doesn't have any plays but it looks like its SWIRLING. what's wrong with my wheel?


So i took out the wheel again and just rotated it with my hands holding onto the tips of the thread.(axle)
The freewheel swirls...
So i trued the spokes. the wheel doesn't spin perfectly straight but my freewheel swirls more than my wheel touching the brake cause of truing.
