That's gotta be around 13+degrees out

I wonder if someone had rotated the perches on your old axle or something?
Either way at least you can run with no vibrations and you know what the problem was now

Well I'm a bit confused how I made such a mistake because I'm normally quite particular about doing things right. But I've done a lot of work to my sj now but not so much on the suspension, so I'll be asking questions in the near future.
Thanks for all the feedback about this, it really helped to solve a nigley problem very quick.

Have you got an angle finder? If you want I can check the angles on one of my spare axle cases for you to compare with yours.
No worries just glad you got it worked out.
Anyway I think it's about time you started a build thread, we haven't seen much of your SJ and what you have done to it since you got it

Scottie it's done now so not to worry.
The engine swap wasn't easy. I did toy with the idea of sticking a 1.6 vit lump in but I had the Isuzu engine already and as I live just down the road from the famous violets lane I thought derv would be the answer.
I took loads of pics while doing the swap but sadly a lot of the pics was lost when I swapped to another phone. Retrieved a few tho so could give you an idea.
