if one axle was too short and not hooking up to tranny but the other axle was fine would the car still move?

 

not unless you have a LSD
HTH

 

same thing he said. I had the same problem when doing my swap. Everytime I drove the car, the axle popped right out and the bearing inside the cv boot wore out. The only only alternative is to get an axle that would fit, but I had mine custom fabricated. Autozone kept giving me the wrong passenger side axle; also watch your tranny fluid. Peace.
