Now I can't get the stupid CV all set. Got all the way to getting the new one on, and the pin doesn't line up, as if they drilled the hole in the wrong spot, so the splines don't line up perfectly. Probably about a 2mm offset. My thought is to drill out the outer part (CV axle). Any other ideas?
Before you start adding new holes, check with some of the experts here. Sometimes there are tricks to these things, sometimes people have things in upside-down or backwards and that's why things don't line up.

Tom had a problem removing a drift pin that was only halfway in (I think it was on an axle) because the guy who was putting it back together before had it turned 180° from the direction it was supposed to go.

These things happen.
