How far to the standard axles slide into the mini spool? ie: do they engage more of the splines than the standard side gears? I'm wondering if torqued/twisted axle splines will be an issue when my minispool arrives. |

Weird how they don't fit easily eh? Haha your thread was helpful to me, but I thought having a step by step guide might be a little more helpful to others. I had a little trouble with getting it to fit in the cage, for a moment I thought it would slide in like the ones that came out did. I tried pressing it in but I was using a bit too much force I thought I was going to break something. Having it in that tight also ment lining up the pin holes would be a pain. So I went around to a couple of mechanics to see if it should be pressed in or a tiny bit shaved off, like you did, But some of them didn't know much. Even a diff specialist didn't have the right lathe bit for it and suggested I bust out the grinder. I'm dodgy, but not that dodgy.
The next place I tried, well I had 4-5 blokes gathered around after explaining what I was doing, a bit of head scratching later one suggested just use some linishing cloth and emery paper. He gave me a strip of each and went at it. 5 mins of back and forth with it on each end, It went in nicely, and made lining up the main pins much easier. So yeah, All done

Ah yes, as for the washers, There was no contact with any other parts so I took them out. Quote: Suzuki special tool part #8008135
I'm suprised no-one especially Joe hasn't noticed this yet... BOOBIES
