Update,

Hauser Racing did a great job, straightened the axle which was very bent, replaced the diff with a Trutrak, new U bolts, spring pads and 1/2 a days rebuild on Friday saw me ready for Mopars.

Had lots of nice compliments on the car which was nice.

Just going to leave this image here... :D

Been busy doing nothing to the car. :D
Passed its MOT again without any issues, chucked some air in the tyres and love the new properly built diff installed last year.

Anyway, picture of it post blast around the country lanes.

Negative, the tubs were moved inwards by about 2 inches. Then the leaf springs were also relocated inwards. Then the axle was made shorter then I ran out of money lol.
