Yes, it stills sucks but it can always be worse...Looking forward to getting the 45's welded up to form the brace.

No they were equal. The center of the rear end is offset by 1". That is what screwed me up. I'm going to take my time and center the rear end properly this time by marking the floor with center lines and running string to locate center points. I also think my pinion angle was a little off as I didn't have the gauge on the right part of the rear end. I have never had experience with setting the pinon angle. Another bonus to my redo.
Thanks on the drive shaft dimension. I will check my notes. It sounds close to what I think I wrote down.

Glad you found it in this early stage!!

Yes, the watts takes up quite a bit of room. I wanted to move the tank as far forward as I could to leave room at the end of the frame rails to squeeze in a hitch...
