These aren’t Fox length axles are they??

Hey all, making progress on the car today and I’m thinking these axles are wrong. I ordered the Fox length with the SN-95 flange for my rear disk conversion but these are clearly too long. The C-clip is on and the center pin is in the diff. Just wanted someone to clarify that I have the wrong axles. Thanks.

Well, maybe not. After fitting the rotors I realized they are offset toward the center of the car, and the calipers will line up with the rotor. It just seems like the flange should sit closer to the seal.

The SN-95 axles stick out much farther to allow a place to press on the ABS reluctor ring. They look right if they're fox-length.

Thanks man. I guess I just wanted some reassurance on the install. After looking at my originals, I see those stuck out past the seal a little more than a half inch as well. I’ll keep trucking on the rear suspension tomorrow.

Yup, that's where the ABS ring would sit if those axles had them

Thanks, it’s all together now. I forgot about the ABS rings and thought that they would not have as much poke. Once the rotors went on, I could see the calipers would line up just fine.
