9" bearing not fully seated with pic
I have a quick time performance rear end with moser axles for a 2001 camaro. The rear end looks great! My question is...is it normal for the bearings to not seat flush with the end of the housing? If I was to start mounting the back plates it would press up against the bearing. Could the axles be too long? I did just read from brutespeed's site that there are different axle lengths needed depending on whether you got a Detroit locker, spool, etc. I never said what kind of differential I got so I guess I just got the standard length axles???

I just tapped the axle with a rubber hammer and the seal did go completely in but still some of the bearing sticks out. I'm not sure if it's ok to have the back plate pressed up against the bearing when I bolt them in.
