Need help with a judgement call

[SSLance]

That's just the way it is with this car (and many of our cars I believe). Things just need to be loved on every now and again to make thing splay nice together. I'm learning to not get as uptight about it as I used to get, just take it in stride and fix it.

Both axles have a 3/8s" flange,



The difference in length is this spacer between the bearing and end of the axle.



I think I can make it work though, might have to love on some e-brake hardware a bit but shouldn't be a big deal. The big deal is holding the spacer ring in place while setting the retainer ring on the T bolts...

A little bit of this...



on here and a clamp...



and hopefully we are good to go. Glued it last night, will test it out before heading to work this morning. Wish me luck...
