So i installed the front pair of springs on my car yesterday and when i went to take a test drive, the car wouldnt move. i put it in gear and looked under the car and the passenger side axle is just spinning. no grinding sound or anything, just spinning.
if it makes any difference, i have a 3s swap with the alltrac axles and i did the "short axle" fix. my only thought is that i pulled the axle out of the wheel hub. any thoughts? the car looks great just sitting there. lol |

yup, definitely sounds like you didn't put both the axles back in the hubs, that's pretty much the ONLY thing that could cause your problem
