Yes they are all the same. I think you have your axle nut on wrong. It goes on the left side with the hexagonal part for a wrench to the wheel.

I need to build a chop.

And I think Tools is right about your axle. Side profile pics with the new legs?!

I like it!

I've got a '67 BSA Lightning frame here that's been hardtailed. I'm thinking about putting an XS650 in it. I know, I know...XS's are played out right now, but it's a good engine for a slim frame.
