You'll need to hold the drum steady & tighten the driveshaft nuts up quite a bit .... They often stick on the spline a little, giving the impression that they are tight & they are not !!?? .

If you have gone to the expense of buying new nyloc nuts .... Place a spacer or a few washers under the nuts to avoid damaging the Nylon ring
