lcarb/axle centering issues.....
so i'm in a bit of a pickle, or so i think.
when i welded up my founders lower control arm relocation brackets...that don't come with any tips/instructions.....the holes are too far forward, moving the axle a little over an inch off center towards the back.
fixing the issue here is no big deal, adj. lca's or grind and re-weld the brackets. cool.
next issue, i just received my custom PST driveshaft and have my jegster torque arm put in.
so if this axle slides forward an inch i'm worried that that i will lose all the slip in the yokes, both in the driveshaft, and on the jegster....meaning a re-cut on the DS and a re-mount on the jegster.............no bueno.
Edit: actual movement forward required is 7/8" to center the wheel
