so I have a 79 900, upgraded to newer hubs awhile ago(pre 87), today I have been redoing the entire front end, i got the axles from a local import store. the passenger side tripod went right in, but when pushing axle out snug against hub it feels like its almost out of the inner driver. with axle nut not on i have a good inch or so play. and driver side was not even close to fitting in. so i swapped axles and put on smaller tripod and newer cv! both axles looked to be newer style as divots for boots where way back and served no purpose .So are cvs interchangable on new bigger axles but not tripods? both being thicker axles why did passenger side fit and not driver. and should there be that much play in the axle with axle nut loose?. sorry for the jibber jabber.And my drivers side wheel hub is destroyed toboot. yeehaw!
