Is there normally any space between the flat face of the CV housings and the tranny? It seems no matter how much I fuss with the halfshaft install, there is still a 1/8" gap between the halfshaft and the trans housing. Is that normal? BTW this is on a D16a6

 

yea it seem's a little wierd..... if the seals on the trans are installed properly and you slipped the shaft in without any probs... your good to go. my 88 std hatch is like that and i've seen that on b18's / acuras... as long as everything went it with ease you should be good.

 

d16a6? are you using a ZC haft shaft??? if so.. as long as the half shaft bolts to the motor and the whole line up . its in the right spot

 

Its an A6 with stock A6 shafts.
