Greeting Worldly Scions,
An exhaustive search of all available literature has come up
with nothing, so I now look for net wisdom.
I have 5 Spit 1500 rear axles sitting in garage. I plan to
refurbish those that are serviceable and install them on
my car(s). Recently I noticed that 4 of these axles have
a dab of yellow paint on the inside flat surface of the inner
yoke (or flange). 1 axle has a dab of blue paint here.
I know that '73 and later axles are an inch longer. All
my axles are the same (longer) length. It is possible,
I suppose that the (odd) flange I have, was not originally
mated to the same axle. Does anyone know what
these paint marks signify?
Just wondering...

Hoping the axles I'm riding on are colour co-ordinated ;-)
