: Pass offset D60 mounting

I was wondering if anyone in the LC crowd had put a D60 with a pass offset diff under their rig?

On a leaf sprung truck it is a no brainer but on an FJ80 I would like to see how the center/upper link was mounted?

Anyone have any ideas?

As background rover uses a large balljoint which goes onto a mount cast into the housing. The mount is just a flat piece with a hole in it for the balljoint. Something like this would be cool with me but I am not sure that welding onto the cast would be strong enough

You are probably going to have to make a hoop of some sort that goes from the diff over the the driver side to mount your link(s). I know ANT (SRC) bent up some tubing that mounts on the spring pads to locate his links from. Maybe you can search for some of his pics on the SRC page.
