The shaft or the hole in the Diff. I just need to be able to mesure and know which one I have.

Would be nice if I had one of each to mesure.

OK Matthew, I just measured the SE axle I've got sitting in the garage. It's 26 mm if you measure from the top of the teeth on the spline, 24 mm if you measure from the bottom of the teeth. And of course it tapers out some towards the outside to about 34 mm just before the wheel bearing.
