Cougar SV Pro build question

[sunbeam]

Hi,

I've been trying to build my new SV today after picking it up from my LMS. I say trying as I've already had to ring Schumacher twice to ask for missing parts to be sent to me .

The guy at Schumacher sounded pretty fed-up with me after the third time of ringing (first two to report missing parts). My third phone call was questioning the build sequence of the diff. He went through the building of it on the phone with me in a different sequence that was far superior to the book !

I'm now worried to ring again, just incase they get really fed-up with me, but I think I have another problem. The rear wheel threads are different lengths. One protrudes 16mm from the back of the wheel plate, the other, 14mm. In the instructions it says to use a nut and washer for the long shaft and grip nut for the short.

Surely they don't expect the builder/owner to use 2 different drive shaft lengths with different wheel fixings per side? Can someone tell me if they have given me an incorrect drive shaft in my kit.

Also, can anybody tell me what way round the diff goes as the instructions don't say.

Many thanks.
