Axle issue, how dumb am I?

[meffie]

Ok so my axles are turning different directions....

What gives, there's really no way I can see to install something backwards?

No electronics involed yet, just manually spinning them. Anything I need to look for?

Thanks for my stupidity

the diff carriers can go in either way. Some diff covers require you to flip them....my guess is you have one in backwards.

One of your differentials is facing the wrong way in the axle. Take the cover off of the front and rear axles. Refer to your manual to see which one is facing the wrong direction and flip it.

Front should be towards short tube side
Rear should be towards long tube side

Damnit I forgot about that. I did remember to rotate the air in the tires tho, so I think I'm covered
