I am plannning on working on the rear axle area today. Right now, the center section ends in mid air about 20" in front of the rear axle. Due to the 2" lowering blocks, the bottom of the axle is about flush with mid sheet I already installed. The Diff drops down an aditional 3 inches from there. I would like to make a smooth transition without limiting axle movement. As such, I will probably mount a second directly onto the axle and try to taper the back side of the diff. Then I will have a bit of overlap from the front section to the axle section and from the back section to the axle section. Maybe I need some type of spring to keep each section tight through the axle travel. Ideas?

My question is, has anyone seen this done before? I am not 100% sure yet how I will mount to the axle. Maybe hose clampsThis is a different approch than the t-100 done by bamzippow as I trying to maintain the origonal ground clearance of the truck of about 6" or less as it is but provide a smooth bottom. Would a taper on the front of the diff do me any good?
