Collar in CAD assembly
I did the passenger side U-Joint and axle seal in my '97 1500 today and can't remember how the collar went in on the CAD. I took it out to make driving the axle seal easier. I took a gamble and put it in with the tapered side towards the passenger side. Hope I'm right. Anyone know for sure as one end of the collar is square and one end is tapered.

i don't know. is the taper on the inside of the collar, so that it guides itself over the inner shaft as it slides on. if so, then i'd think the taper would be to drivers side.
if the taper is on the outside of the collar, i can't see what purpose that would serve.
edit... i've worked on my cad a couple of times putting on and dicking around with my posilok, but i've never had the collar off, nor noticed the taper. i wonder if mine is on wrong, since its a little hard to engage. hhmm.

Miami Son, I hope you and I are correct. Guess I'll find out tomorrow when I get the tires back on and take it for a ride. Anyone else with opinions/knowledge on this?
