hi fellas im getting closer and closer to dropping my engine in my mini k ok theres no engine in it at the moment but when i look into my engine bay looking down at my drive shafts. now the problem is when i try to put those metal things on them for the rubber crosses they dont slide on........and they are also a bit different to my brothers the ends on mine are smaller where as the metal things slide on my brothers does any one know the reason for this"????????????????as i have next to no idea.........

Sounds like you are comparing pot joint shafts and the old rubber U/J shafts.
Got some pics???
