1969 Dodge Dart issue with installing axles after thrust block removal.
How do the splines get misaligned from each other just by having the axle ve been at this for decades and haven’t had it happen with taking it apart. They are loaded and don’t move easily.
I’m Questioning this statement. How do they get misaligned just removing the axle? I understand they are misaligned whenever it is taken apart.
First, read what I
actually said. I did not say you can misalign the splines by "just removing the axle", like you are now saying. I said that
any time the axles are out, the splines can become misaligned. That's a really important difference.
Most of the time someone is pulling an axle they're not just pulling it out to slide it right back in either. They're doing stuff. Like, I don't know, removing a thrust button? All it takes is half a spline width off. And if the axles are out, the splines
CAN GET MISALIGNED. I didn't say it was easy, I didn't say it happens every time, I just said it's possible. And clearly, it is.
Remember, this thread is about having an issue after the thrust button was removed. The context is important.
And just because you've been doing something "for decades" doesn't mean you've seen everything. I've been at this for decades too, and I sure as hell haven't seen it all. I can absolutely guarantee you haven't either.
