I have a McSorley 442 with Rorty IRS designed rear end for Sierra. Even allowing for the wider body of the 442 the Sierra diff and shafts would not fit. Eventually had to move the the carriers out by another 80 - 100mm on average to fit.
Deja vu for the rear shocks - with the Rorty uprights and built to the letter of his plans, I was left with only 200mm for shock and spring when the car was set on riding height Mayor surgery again so save the day.

Sad part, he did not even responded to my mail informing him the plans are in error.
