02 Cadillac Escalade AWD. When in Park it rolls down hills?

Just put a CV axle on the passenger side, and a new spindle (same side). Now for some reason I get some kind of clunking noise out of the front end while in motion. Noticed on a small hill, that when it is in park the vehicle rolls like its in neutral. I noticed that the axle can be moved back and forth about an 1in. I thought when i put it in that it would click in there tight but it was pretty easy. Does anyone have any ideas? The noise sounds more like a grinding rubbing noise, but only every few seconds. It isn't consistent with the wheels in motion. But I couldn't see anything that it could be rubbing on. Didn't have the noise prior.
Again after installing the cv axle it moves back and forth about an inch, by hand, and the front diff is full of fluid
