wow, 30 second install on the dr side axle lol
pass side, a little fun. since I was doing all the dirty work, my helper was the camera man, the rag man, the go to guy.

heres me fooling with the axles... wtf I look drunk in the 2nd pic?



heres the parts all lined up ready to be put together.



One error. The passenger side inner tripot must be used on the passenger side CV axle. The driver side only fits the drivers side of the transmision.

maybe thats why my axle is too long for the PS, I need to use the PS CV axle insted of the Dr Side GTP axle?
for the dr side axle im using just the fiero auto axle.

I think you might be a bit mistaken, as you have a passenger side tripot in the picture, and you say that everything is also driver side. The axle should be mostly driver side, with the exception of the tripot.

My thought is you used a passenger side axle, and its too long, but I have not attempted trying to put together one of these on my passenger side, I ended up using a fiero driver side/jbody axle.
