Ok so I'm putting my wt diffs under a nt
I had a read through bogfrog thread but being me I don't understand any of it
I don't know why I don't get it
Is there a better write up of what I'm after or is bogfrog thread the easiest write up there is?
Links would be good
Cheers

measure the distance between the center holes in the springs... now subtract that from the width of the diff housing end to end, divide that number by 2, then measure that far in on each side of the diff housing and you have the center point of your perch.
make sure you get the pinion angle right.

The w/t perch's need to be moved in 40mm, it is vital that they stay on the same plane, that's your caster adjustment......
the n/t r/h side perch is also a different shape to the l/h, being that it has to sit on the pumpkin a lil bit, so, i in the past have sacrificed the n/t housing's to save the perch buy cutting the tubing beside the perch, then take your time picking the pesrch of..
Or, buy a set of TSOR's perch's, have used em a couple of time's & love em, new steel is so mush nicer to work with.....& you don't have to be as careful with the ole one's.....

Call in here and I'll show you the jig I made up for moving the perches... It is very basic but works well.

So I think I worked it out
wt diff spacing is 950 and nt diff spacing is 870
So 950 - 870 = 80 \ 2 is 40mm
So perches have to be welded on wt diff 40mm in from center hole of the wt perch
Is this all correct
Also I already have the perches from fatzook
