2019 SS different rear axle diameter?

Just noticed the rear axles are different diameters. Drivers side is much larger. Is this normal?

Yes, they are designed that way to avoid wheel hop.

Yes. It reduces wheel hop as explained in this thread.

I figured there was a reason. Just hadn't noticed before. Thanks for the quick reply.
