I recently pulled the rear axles on my ‘74 spit to replace wheel bearings 
and stub shaft bearings.   After re-assembly, the axle on one side extends 
about 3/8" further from the hub than on the other side.  Obviously, the 
re-assembly can not continue until I resolve the problem.  I used factory 
spec bearings, and axles ends look OK.  Any suggestions??  Anyone with 
similar experience??

Thanks!!
