rear doing the rear wheel bearings, did not pay attention to which side the short axle goes to. Any help would be great.

No stupid questions mate, I always thought the rears were the same length..... so maybe mines could be deemed a stupid answer

Sorry forgot to mention 1988 Safari Wagon, Coil sprung. and I am pretty sure the longest axle is the passangers.

nothing drastic maybe 20-30mm. luckly the seals where really bad on one side and the axle is still dirty so I am going to try that.

Will post result and some photos
