yes they are eg the drivers side one is longer then the passenger side one but the drivers side one only just seeems to engage into the inner pot joint as in its not fully in the pot joint, can peple think why this might be not lowered too much, would using mtero hubs pull the drive shaft out, eg are the more off set then mini ones,

mmm trying not to sound stupid but i might start to but if the hub was 2 degree more neg that would mean the shaft would be going more into the pot joint wouldnt it, just trying to find out if any one has had this problem before, what are the major differences between metro and mini hubs, my hubs have the threads that go into the ball joints, but metro ones have the ball joints that screw into the hubs dont they, the drive shaft needs to go into the pot joint by about another 10 to 15 mil so some thing is seriously wrong, outer cv maybe different
