I apologize for the long wait, but here's the update. I just found out tonight that I may have been a case of mistaken identity. Going through some other people's posts on this forum I finally saw another picture of dd9, and it does not look like the ones I have. I think perhaps they sent me dd8 by the looks of things. I did get them to work, but having never seen a picture of what they were supposed to look like I just assumed that I was stuck working with what I had so I beat the crap out of them with a hammer, ground the steering gear box, and shimmed up the motor. In these three pictures, the shiny one is what I believe dd9 is supposed to look like, the second is what I got, and the third is what I had to do to make it fit.
