RRC drive shafts dont fit diff!
« on: August 11, 2006, 12:12:42 »
hi, my rear diff siezed up, so I got it replaced - the scrappy told me it was from the same car, but the drive shafts dont fit now, they are too small.

can I just replace the drive shafts, ie. will they fit into the axle and hub assembly??

thanks

I can only think you have replace 24 spline with 10 or vica-versa :shock:

as has been said, can you compare the old and new diffs to see if they are the same holes in the ends for the drive shafts
