Yes, we just recently bought a used rearend and the nuts off of our old rearend are too big. It has something to with whether it's a super lightweight rear or, a standard rear. We had to buy new nuts from Benic.

I think that it all has to do with the O.D. of the axle...there are a few different sizes, which could account for your problem.....
