Driveshart length
 
Anybody found problems with rear bolt on shafts,basically I have tried to fit the ones I have to the rear suspension and they arev to short.

The Sierra drive shafts fit perfectly, after all the car is built around the running gear off the Sierra. Are both too short? I know they are different lengths for each side.

they are sided try the one that doesnt fit on the other side.

Panic over and thanks for the replys,aware they are sided as there is about 40 +mm difference in the shafts. Did not count on the fact that Ginetta use short custom made rear drive shafts and that is what I am using for donor as it has a brand new engine,Quaife box and new Quaife LSD,before anybody asks why,the Roadster handles 100% better.

Apolagies for the spelling mistakes.
