Ok problem solved, no welding or modifications needed. Pulled one cap and pushed the shafts all the way to one side. Even tapped on it with a hammer for good measure. Then took some crude measurements. Can't find my proper tool but a metal rod makes a crude measuring stick. Compared the depths...

Well today is a beautiful day and the wife might give me some time to tear into the axle and do some measuring. I don't have the original axle shafts but I suppose I could swap it out with the m36 that has stock axles. I have attached a "classified" pictures from early in the build to see what...

GRAMMAR! My old arch nemesis, we meet again. Yes, I do still have the grizzly lockers front and rear. I have not taken the truck off-road yet because it is still mid build and I just had the new driveshaft made. I can say on the road the truck handles fine and I don't notice any issues with the...

I'm going to pull one cap. Push the shaft all the way over and measure how much is still sticking out. The caps don't have teeth all the way to the end. So if it proves to not stick out far enough. Ill screw and tack a bolt on the end of each, at the cap ends. That way if the bolt snaps or falls...

That's a good idea. I have to flip the hubs still so when I do that Ill pull them out and weld a bolt in. It already has thread for a bolt to be screwed in, I assume from manufacturing. Ill find one that fits then weld it in place for good measure. Anyone object to this idea?

Ill see how it works over the next couple of weeks. You are correct the shafts can push all the way through the diff, there is nothing separating them. When I talked to the manufactures tech he felt that they should have enough teeth to still work even with the extra play. From what I can tell...

Important update: I have sense bobbed the truck and when I removed the rear lockouts I found some disturbing stuff. Apparently the shafts had worked their way over to the passenger not allowing it to unlock and coming off the teeth of the driver side. Not before the tips could be ground off the...

Is this reduce with a dremel or something I should have a lathe do. Im thinking a spring might be best, I'm just happy I didn't waste all this money.

^Sorry Lock outs not lockers: So I installed a grizzly locker on my front rear axle. To still keep the "tight turning" I installed overson double splined shafts and AVM lockouts so I could turn it off. NOW the axles keeps locking one side or the other on its own and it doesn't have to drive...
