I agree that you may be OK.
As for preload I would recommend tightening the castle nut at least 25 ft lbs turn wheel to make sure the bearing has seated.
Then back off the nut so it is loose then go finger tight then back off to the nearest spindle hole for the cotter key.
I use this method for all of my bearings.
