There seems to a difference of opinion between my East Coast and West Coast
gurus, concerning how to reinstall axle shafts.
Maybe the landlocked people in the heartlands can settle this.

I was going to forward you an email I got from Chuck, but I guess I thrashed
it. Anyway, he told that a old trick he used before the axle shafts were
hardened, was to swiap them after the splines got a little twist, that way
they would bend back. Not sure how you get an axle with a twisted spline back
in, but I guess a BFH will do the job.
I will put them back in the way they came out, but just curious about
Chuck's theory.
