You realise that you have no doubt bent your diff applying heat to it like that when welding the brackets on?
No big deal but if you are serious about handling then it would pay to take it out and get it trued up again ( perhaps with some negative camber?)
Cheers

My thoughts were that for optimum performance maybe the shocks should be as far apart as you can get them, to close to the centre and you will have less control over body roll

Pretty good couple weeks got wof on the old girl and got my 1st rego as a classic $108 12mnth rego
also got to test the new adjusties on Whariti hillclimb over weekend ,4 time Nz rally champ Richard Mason (was competing)calls it one of Nz best roads.
After a nervous 1st run I manged to shave 25sec off that in second run(5min 54sec) but only to find when we were at the top that the radiator had cracked around outlet ending what was a epic day
