Frankenstein Mach 1 in Vegas

@Cleveland Crush That's the 159 just on the edge of Las Vegas. It is the road that you use to get to Red Rock National Conservation area. I am lucky enough to live, work, and play right at the base of those mountains. Sometimes I have to go to the strip to work though

Those numbers for your rear end housing seem off to me. For them to be 0.75" different from front to back, your rear end housing would need to be bent worse than the lumber from home depot. I would try something a little more precise. Like take off the wheel and the drum. Clean off any dirt or rust. Clamp a known straight edge to the hubs. Then measure between the straight edges.

If you're measuring with the drum and wheel on, you could have any number of things like a bent rim or a piece of crud sitting between the wheel and the drum.

If you measure and its still off, you can rotate the axles and measure again.
If you rotate the axles and everything still measures the same, then it would be the housing thats bent. If you rotate the axles and the measurements move around on you, then it could be a bent axle shaft.
