Good evening everyone. I picked up 2 Ranger rears to use in a project car we are building, but I have a question for you guys. The driveshaft is offset to the right side by 3-4” and I will need it to be centered or very close. I remember seeing someone using 2 short side tubes and axles to both shorten and center the rear ended. The person was doing it to an 8.8, but I can’t see any reason why it wouldn’t or shouldn’t work on the 7.5 rear. Has anyone done this? I apologize if it’s been covered before, but I searched and looked thru many pages with no luck.
There are 3 plugs in each side, which in the video, were drilled/ground out and then the axle tube removed from the center section. I looked at these 2 rears and it looks do-able. The short side is approx 3” shorter than the left(longer) side. I think I can get it close to centered if it actually works.
