Default Axle Question

Well when my friend pulled off the axles he took it off with the boots. Now we are stuck with two GSR axles, and I don't know which is the driver side and which is the passenger.

1 has a bigger rubber thing and 2 stripes, 1 has a smaller rubber thing and 1 stripe. Which one is the driver side and which is the passenger side? Thanks!

what you could do is if ur totally not sure what one goes to what side, take them axles to your local auto part store and have them look the up on the computer and match them up accordling to what side it will be. good luck hope that may help you out a bit

They are the same length
If you have uneven length axles
the car will torque steer more than a car with equal axle lengths

to the creator
it *really* does not matter what axle you use with what cv cup
They are the same races and bearing
You should try to find the orginal combo (because the bearing(s) wear into the races and form groove(s))
