Hey there,

The axle shafts between the manual and auto:  one side
is the same between the two and the other side is
different.  On the auto, one side is shorter.  I do
not remember which it is, but as I remember, I think
it is the right side that is shorter.  So you should
have three axles that are the same size, and one that
is shorter.

To go manual, grab two of the axles that are the same
size.
