Diff alignment issues

[timos]

Hi guys, in need of some help!
I just had my r31 diff made up, where a mate welded on ke70 mounts onto the r31 diff..
I noticed when I put the wheels on there not aligned, (it hasnt got a panhard rod or swaybar installed at the moment). . Is there a way I could rectify this?

There both toeing inwards.. so could adjustable trailing arms do the job? Or....

Thanks gents!

adjustable arms wont help with toe, only pinion angle. the diff shouldnt have any toe unless it was modified or bent?

Mmmm..The only mods I have done to it is mini spooled it and a twin caliper set up..

warped due to welding heat?

So pretty much its for the tip? Or is there ways I can go about to fix it?

Ya take it to your local drag car diff guy and get him to straighten the housing. It's pretty normal for a housing to warp, especially if it everything was set and welded in one quick go without letting it cool/paying attention to amount of heat dumped into the housing.

This method looks sweet:


This looks a little too backyard-ey for me:

When I welded mine it ended up bent. It was really surprising to see how much it moved when set up on V-blocks and rotated.

Any diff shop should be able to straighten it for you, or put you in touch with someone who can.
