So i need some help with an issue that i cant seem to figure out. I took my passenger side (on a RHD car) driveshaft our to replace the pot joint and cv boot and also swap to discs from drums. I ended up buying new driveshafts from Minisport and mounted them up. Only one problem.....I cant get them to line up with the suspension. Yes i have the shorter shaft on the passenger side (because I made that mistake once already). Any ideas to what could be the issue? Ill post up a picture here for you all to see.

Well, now that I've had a chance to look at the photos.....I'm questioning if I really did get the shorter shaft on the passenger side.    :mmkay:    Thoughts?  Honestly if I put the longer one on there for the second time in a row....I better go get my head checked.  :lol:

Seriously, sometimes the answer is so in your face you just don't see it.  Thank you for that, and now that I look at the picture I actually laughed and said "duh!"  Thank you thank you!
