Cool

Both shafts should be of the same height. The radio has two screws on the front to bolt it up against the backside of the dash and to a bracket in the rear of the unit to hold up the rear.

With wood grained dash panel in place, the tuning dial edge should be flush and the back side of the knobs should be flush with the panel. Meaning the knurled part of the knobs should be above the panel.

Has the shaft been shoved into the radio?

I bought a radio that has one shaft lower...the problme was that someone before me had unscrewed the locking nut and the whole shaft went down into the radio a bit. Check that.
