Tighten the inner nuts so the hub is a tad tighter? Just make sure the axle still rolls smoothly.

If its real close you can pull them apart and slip it in.

I was thinking of telling him that, but 1.)he might try to pry it open with hammer, screwdriver, etc and damage his frame, or 2.) his Eastern might bend.
