Thanks for the fast reply!

Yup that's what I figured... And I did clean the bore and shaft very well and used a touch of red grease, but it just did not want to install over the shaft... Well, I got two more tries coming my way via Amazon prime. What a pain. And I thought the hard part was going to be removing the front drive shaft lol.
