110 Stalker

Just put britpart heavy duty one piece half shafts into my 2008 110.

I think I have followed correct procedure but!! I may have cocked up or just being ignorant of drive trains or both.

Its up in axel stands both sides new shafts in. I am confused that both sides spin freely and dont seem to be engaged with the diff.
Have I done something stupid?
 
When you turn 1 wheel CW does the other wheel turn ACW?

Where they the correct part ordered by vin?

Welcome :) can we see pics of it?

Clearly I was showing my ignorance re diffs.
With both wheels off the ground the half shafts are engaged with each side if the spider. With no torque on the spider from the transfer ring, of course the wheels simply turn in opposite directions.

Every day a shool day.
 
Why did you need to fit HD shafts? Reason being my buddy snapped a rear shaft in a Puma 110 recently, but only moving off from standstill uphill. Not exactly a "tough" shaft..
 
They had lots of play and the britpart one piece ones were a decent price and simple.
Will report back on any difference once I have finished refurbing brakes, being done at same time.
 
I can understand the splines stripping but a solid steel shaft breaking would take some force !
Think that’s how most people lose drive by breaking them.
Never been rough enough to to it myself, I have time though 🤔.
