I swear I posted already. Anyway, no, the stocker was too long. So I guess the actual distance was too long because when the axle was in all the way the carrier bearing wouldn't line up with the block. He said he thought it was hitting on something in the tranny, meaning the splines were too long, because the collar wasn't up against the diff seal yet.

I'll send a PM to him and try to get him in this thread even though he doesn't check up on here much.

So we know people have used the stock pass axle for the i30 VLSD but how 'bout for the AE? Has anyone else done this? I don't really care because I don't have to deal with transaxles anymore but I'm trying to help future AE'ers.
