Ive considered redoing the arms that are paralell to the diff bearings with some stronger hot rolled. You can kinda see in the picture the setup is bent from use. Problem is I just set it back in its storage place and will forget about it till the next car. It gets the job done. I could never find alot of great information either about a safe acceptable spread distance. I keep the max travel .008 to .009. I somewhat recall geting .012 or .015 is about the max, but I dont feel like tempting fate.
