Here's the drivers side, G6 drivers axle, and Malibu hub assembly with the suspension loaded:

At first glance, it's good to go.. but, the axle is completely compressed:

So, custom axle no. 1 needs to be 1.25" shorter.

Here's the passenger side, Cobalt SS jack shaft, G6 drivers axle, and Malibu hub assembly with the suspension loaded:

Custom axle no. 2 needs to be 2.5" longer.

I found out the the Reatta 3.8 oil filter adapter won't work since it would interfere with the mounting of the p/s pump.

And I finalized the clutch pedal mount and the front trans mount by adding stand off spacers cut from 20mm bar stock.
