Easy free rotation is normal, they are only "tight" for about 5 miles when you install them new. If they need replaced, you'll feel a little clunk when you move them with pry bar or when you move the wheel by hand.
I am on 290k originals but this truck was a pavement pounder from the burbs.
The only rods I have seen starting to fail were aftermarket or super high mileage, 250K+.
