bump...ran into the issue where i could not get the tapered axle stub with bull ring installed. after measuring everything, even with the ring fully compressed on the axle stub it was still 34.55 mm. the hole in the diff is only 33mm( WTF). my aha moment was when i realized you are supposed to put the ring in the diff first then put the axle stub in.

Reviving the deaaaad!

How low did you guys machine the grove to fit the C-clip? What happens if you go too deep? I'm doing the same OS Giken install on my 2007 open diff base.

I believe I answered this via messages.

Hahahaha! All I even read was the title regarding "Stub Shafts" and "Pulling out". Too good to pass up!

Trying to bring this thread back from the dead.

I have 05 G35 5AT. I am swaping in a 6MT dif with VLSD however the quaife dif i got was for a base model non-vlsd car.

My question is, i did some reading on here and seems like the quaife difs are identical between the vlsd and non-vlsd models the only issue is running into the passanger side stub axle. Does anyone know what needs to be done to have it properly sit without backing out?
How much do you have to cut or machine it?
