    Which is longer: driver or passenger side front axle?

    Not sure if it's the driver side or passenger side that has the longer axle, so I'm hoping someone can steer me in the right direction. I don't have my old axles to compare these new axles to to figure out which goes where. It's been a bit over a 1.5 years since I've had the car running, and I'm just trying to get that relief of having a running car again.

    I don't remember 100%, but I believe the pass. side is slightly shorter... but if you have a good luck you should be able to see if the flange on the tranny is slightly closer or not.

    This is your answer. Just put axles on the Avant.

    Thanks everyone. I'm finally going to put the axles in today. Would have been in yesterday, but I kept running into problems installing the pass. axle. Realized that I need to jack up the motor a bit to slide it in easily. Freaking headache.
