Default Problem with axle and OBX LSD! help!!

Guys, I have a little problem I recently bought a LSD installed in my transmiccion and when I went to mount the axles only entered the driver's side. The passenger side does not want to enter or force! We remove the click to try to see that the click it were not very open and as it does not fit, another new spindle either. If you know it can be will thank you.

Try fitting the axle that you can fit into the side that doesnt fit?
Considering it's an OBX unit... thats probably your first strike against ya

Problem and OBX seem to always fall in the same sentence

alot of time with the obx diffs you have to hone the diff out after you press on the bearings. the metal is very soft and it actually shrinks when you press them on. just go to your local parts store and get a wheel cylinder hone and hone it out. recommend doing out of the car so you can clean it out. also if you havnt done already get the bolt a washer kit and upgrade the diff. alot of people talk **** about obx but i have been rockin there diff for 3 years and 500whp on slicks and it works great! i did just buy a quaife tho for my new setup! i dont trust the obx in competition

ive been 10.66@138 on an obx lsd, then sold the tranny to a guy w a pro fwd car and he went 9.50's@150mph+ with no problems. i did do the washer upgrade though. ive had 3 of their units and the only problem ive ever had was with the first batch, they were almost impossible to get the passenger axle out of because it didnt have a bevel on the inside
