Default Halfshaft ?

Do you have to put the halfshaft back in the same exact position you took it out? In other words does the end that pointed out to the edge of the car have to go back in at that position, or it it a symmetrical part? I'm redoing my bushings and ujoints and just wondered?????

Doesn't matter, both ends are identical.

As I recall(it was years ago) I had a vibration problem in mine when I changed my U-joints, when I reversed the driveshaft and re-installed it the vibration went away. But that could have just been a balancing issue on my car and my shafts in particular.
