Hey Poor Judgment…

The front diff case holes were not centered on your drawing. Should they be? And should they be the same spacing as the rear diff mounting holes? Also, from your drawing, it looks like the front bend is a radius, or a two part bend… should it be? What is the angle of the bend?
Apols for the late reply - been away for a bit for work, had to go and pass an ultrasonics ndt course - woohoo, show me the way to pay day! Anyway...

The diff case measurements are just as I took them from the chassis, I didnt actually check to see what they came out at tbh. Or have I snapped onto the wrong point when drawing them in...?
Im guessing u are ok now with u having a diff to work from - or would u still like a revised drawing? its not a problem if u do. unsure if the rear is exactly the same hole spacing as the front, due to my chassis being half built up at the mo! Lol, I can pull it apart and check if u like tho?

That front bend is 30 degrees on my JT chassis iirc, I think I added that as a note on the email with the drawing attached. My stock cen one is slightly under 30 degrees - I put that down to wear and tear. Its a single point bend with the bend fulcrum point shown, I think, on the drawing I sent. I have the version here that I mean, if I sent a different one - would u like it sending?
I drew the bend as it is, rather than as a true contruction drawing, apols for any confusion there. Worth bearing in mind re the inner radius tho, for the diff casings, a sharp corner there on the cases wont let them fit properly.
