    I'm replacing the front CV axles on my 2010 Tundra and on the passenger side the axle had a small spacer between the differential and axle body. Is this necessary? Will it help with a 3.5 in lift? The driver's side did not have it and I can't find anything anywhere that explains it. They're was not any leaks with the old axles. Also, do I have to replace the differential seals? They're in great shape currently. Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance. -Tim
