I have always wanted to do something with that passenger/diff side u-bolt, instead of forming it around the axle.  What do you got, on a rotated axle.

Cut and turned outers for improved pinion angle. Maybe?

Do not know, that is why I asked!!!!!

I do not run a u-bolt on the outside of the PS side side of the frontend, I welded and braced some .50 flat stock and use 1/2" grade 8 bolts. Seems to be holding up fine.
