What does that mean " side axle resting on the wheel" ??? I can't
envision an axle that is to long because the CV's have a pretty exact
position on the ends of the axle, and the CV bolts pull those CV's and
thus the axle into precisely the right position. It's a fair fit. Unless
I'm missing something, you won't be able to get an axle that is to long
to fit properly during the installation.
