With the axles in the housing, does yours look something like this? Can anyone else confirm or deny that this looks correct?

Thanx in advance.

I think you may have the same issue that I did. When my axles were ordered, they were ordered for the wrong centre section. I have a strange centre section with a billet half posi, and they were meant for another type of posi unit. I called Moser and spent about 45 mins on the phone with them before we realized that. In the end all I had to do was cut about 5/8" off the passenger side axle and they fit like a charm. Mine looked like your set up before I cut the one axle. I would suggest calling moser, tell them what kind of centre section and posi unit you have and they should be able to give you the right measurements. You may have to take a bunch of other measurements for them. Hope this helps.
