MK Indy RX-5 Vtec: Where were we?

[@19mati67]

Rear hubs are loose because the half shafts are not in and tightened down with the axle nuts, no? Mine is the same way, because I haven't tightened the axle nut down yet. If you lower the engine, you won't lose the driveshaft pinion angle?

You shouldn't have to rely on the axle nut to take the slack out of the bearings, they should be set correctly without the axle. Lowering the engine will probably change the angle a small amount but I can check those measurements once the drivetrain goes back in.
