1G AWD Half shaft alignment issue

[9 T GSX]

Think I have discovered a issue no one has ran into before or at least I have not seen any mention of before "I know impossible you say".

I am using the half shaft in my FWD but for some reason as the video shows the holes are not lining up?

I know there are 2 different style half shafts for the 2G's but as far as I know there is only one for the 6 bolt 1G?

I checked the shaft for anything being bent broke and all appears fine. All motor mounts are tight, trans to motor bolts tight. I pushed down on the shaft a little to if the holes would line up but its too far off.

The only thing that's different is when I had the transmission built, TRE used a 2G FWD case/gearset, as the transmission I sent them was an very early small shaft. Would it be possible that the hole for the CV axle in the 2G FWD Transmission sits a bit higher, wouldn't think so but strange things happen.

I have no audio in the video but it looks like it just needs pushed into place. The 2g uses the same axle position as a 1g trans, I've used both between 6 bolt swaps and AWD swaps. Don't forget the spacer for the second bolt on the block since theres no A/C bracket

Does the bolt thread into the hole without the half shaft? See if there’s a broken bolt inside that hole.

No broken bolts inside the holes, the bolts screw into the holes without the shaft.
Good to know on the position. There is no pushing on the shaft anymore everything is seated well and on the video the one part of the half shaft is resting on the block, the other side that has the space between the half shaft and the block is where the spacer goes.I know about the spacer just haven't gotten around to put that to that point yet.

This is my half shaft bracket. Mine has #’s 426 & 390 on the bracket. Idk if that helps

Is there no radial play at all?

Pauleyman: there is some, I'm sure the bearing could be replaced but it spins smooth and is quiet. I have a guess normal amount of play where the shaft goes into the tranny if I lift up on the shaft, which the wrong way I need it to move.
