Actually, it wasn't that hard to make, my brain must have been mush when I tried before
I could not add the snap info via the shadow library so I inlined it in the parts ,dat fileĀ itself.
It might be slightly too long, but 5.5 axles are weird anyhow so maybe not. If it is, lemme know and I'll try and fix it. I basically just subtracted 20LCU from the correct token that represents the length of the primitive for axle 5.5L type 2 (59426.dat) as well as copied the shadow library data for 59426.dat into the attached file and then subtracted 20LDU from the correct token in shadow data that represents the length.
I also noticed that there was not a differential assembly in LDCAD for this:

So I made one, I noticed that some differential assemblies were part of the LDRAW library but some were part of the LDCAD shortcut folder with the author: LDCAD, I did not want LDCAD to keep showing this dialog however:
![[Image: ldcad-dialog.png]](https://i.ibb.co/s9CG4k0G/ldcad-dialog.png)
So, I did the best of both worlds, I made it part of the LDRAW folder but I gave it the filename and part description using the formats that the shadow folder did for differential assemblies.
You can still right click > reorganize > inline it just fine though.
