If the bearings are falling off then you need longer spacers to hold them in there or you need to fabricate some screws in the wheel to told them in

So it should look like

Frame| Spacer| Bearing | Wheel | Bearing | Spacer | Frame

The spacers should be long enough so that the wheel barely moves side to side

does that answer what you were asking?
