Need more information. Are you referring to wheel bearings, transmission bearings, differential bearing, etc. Also what type of vehicle is this? If your talking about front wheel bearing on a front wheel drive car, there are no specs or adjustments. Any play means the bearing is bad. Same goes for most 4WD vehicles. Front wheel bearing on a rear wheel drive also should not have play but if they are in good shape, they can be repacked and tightened to spec.
