One thing to remember about a nutted rear axle is that while tightening the nuts, the drive side tends to slip forward . Make sure when tightening that when done the drive side is all the way back in the dropout and the wheel is centered in the frame. I find it is easiest to tighten the drive side first, then pull the wheel into the centered position and tighten the non drive side.
