Default Half shaft issues

I recently bought new axles for my car, b16 cable s1 tranny, and had to buy new half shaft bc other was female and hasports is female. So I bought half shaft that was male and the journal right b4 splines is bout 8th of inch too small in diameter compared to other half shaft so my tranny is leaking. Need help to see what options I have at this juncture

Get a dial gauge and check the I.d. Of the axle hole on the trans without the seal then take a measurement of the axle plug (end that goes into tranny) take both measurements to Napa and they can find one that will fit.

Double check if its off of a manual. I had the same issue on my swap, it took me for ever to figure that out. Turned out that was my problem, i had a half shaft off of an auto. I used 90-93 teg manual axles and i shaft. I also had the seal problem, try to get a hold of a 90-93 teg seal, worked fine for me. Good Luck...

90-93 seal is what is needed with 90-93 intermediate shaft with female outer end
94-2000 seal is what is needed with 94-2000 intermediate shaft with male outer end

This is correct... You are doing something wrong/don't know what you are doing or looked up the parts wrong. Also, you can't swap seals side to side as the OD is different from passenger to driver.

Check the I Shaft again, if it says sk7-N it's from an auto. A manual I Shaft will say sk7-J,witch is what you need
