Put everything upside down then your heading in the right direction (I guess)

 Re: Make Your Own ....2CV.... 4x4
Need to swap the diffs, the other way (inside the housing)..... Not such a task as the have been taked apart and assembled a number of times and they are also nice and clean.
Note to self. “Never assume, you’ll make an ass out of you and me”

 Re: Make Your Own ....2CV.... 4x4
Having waited 3 months for a local macine shop to make some drive shaft adapters for the rear gear box , I embarked on making my own, using the front ones for dimensions. Used QCAD to make a drawing. Laser Cut or Water Jet ? Laser cheaper whereas Water Jet is more accurate and can do small holes but expensive. Opted for Laser with the hole positions marked up. Use a sharp centre-punch and an eye glass for accuracy, to mark out the centre-points for drilling. Hours with the drill press/9mm and 10mm taps.... Blank Laser Cut Attachment:

Used 10mm Hex nut onto Gearbox flange. Attachment:

Fitted 2CV Inner flange. Attachment:

It all fits together

Correct length, but will require my best welding efforts... Also need to find the correct flange Attachment:
