Re: Why 67 Axle is loose by 1/8

It sounds like the axles are too long for the housing. They are likely for a '71 and up housing which is 1.5" wider. So .750" per side. As for the axle end play, IMO 1/8" is a little excessive. I do not know of any shims that is going to fix this issue on a truck 12 bolt. The truck 12 bolt is very different from a 9 inch differential.
