    Default ra40 axle in to te72 diff

    Hey Hey,

    I bent an axle in my t18 and i bought a ra40 axle to fit in, I cut it down to suit and it fits in the housing ok but it doesnt bolt up. The plate with four holes in it doesnt match.

    Any one else had this problem or is it just me ?

    RA60 would probably have worked, with the cutting and grinding and so on.

    Got the axle in after i swapped the plates over, Working fine. The original t18 axle was bent and the bearing came out in many pieces.
