good to see you making progress and yes it looks right, the diff flange sits way over to the o/s as yours is, and yes I sometimes need some refreshment similar to yours ..lol

it really is the whole mounting setup , the arms and the nose. they all need to be hard mounted , so yes what you have there will work for the nose and then you need to sort the arm mounts.....

Isn't it meant to be behind the tunnel cross tube (further to the rear)?
Also get it as low as you can. I would like mine to be about 10mm lower (Sierra, book spec)

Ps it's been a long time since I looked at the book.
