If I switch to a spool will the axles go farther into a spool since there are no spider gears and pins? Even if I were to cut the axles they would be about 1/4 inch too long with my LS rear. thanks Twin turbo 440 72 barracuda

I tried to ask through privite message but it says your quota has been exceeded. Thanks Steve Twin turbo 440 72 barracuda
